Vienna is the world’s capital of music — The Vienna Philharmonic and the Vienna Boys’ Choir set the international tone, while the State Opera House and the Golden Hall at the Musikverein are among the world’s leading venues. Traditional strengths endure to this day — the Vienna sound pioneered by local DJs enjoys worldwide popularity.

Opera fans will meet international stars here and jazz lovers will find a pulsating jazz scene. Pop and rock concerts  provide unforgettable live music experiences.
