Wiener Konzerthaus

I really enjoyed the 9th Symphony of Beethoven in the Konzerthaus. This beautiful and traditional music theatre is a must for any person living in Austria or a visitor to Vienna. The acustic, the architecture, the space, design and decoration will make that you have a unforgettable experience. Do not miss it!

Beautiful venue, amazing acoustics, but we were sat in the gallery and there was a huge amount of steps to get up there. There is one lift, but you can't access it from the ground floor, so if you've got gallery tickets, you can't use it. Also, the pitch of the seats is very low so if you're at the top and sat behind a tall person (as I was), your view may be obstructed.

Excellent place to see very talented Vianese conductors, musicians, opera singers and ballet dancers. Exceeded my expectations. Had a wonderful time.

It was a beautiful concert venue in Vienna, great sound, excellent musicians, singers and dancers. I had an amazing time.

Great concert hall, with excellent acoustic and interior.

It was a last minute ticket for a waltz concert. I know nothing about the acoustics of the hall but I had an enjoyable time there!

Intimate venue with an old world feel to it. Dedicated and attentive audience and works class performances

Beautiful building, beautiful concerts, strongly recommend for music lovers

Came here for a performance by Alma Deutscher, a British born virtuoso. Great performance by her. The seats could be a little more comfortable. Nice venue for classical music and several halls for concerts. The Austrians know how to put on a show!

We saw a lovely string quartet concert. We were looking to add a musical performance to our trip itinerary that was not too pricey. It was a little frustrating because the tickets had "musikverian" in all caps but the concert was actually in the konzerthsus down the street. Our uber was still outside when we realized the mistake so we hopped in and were at the correct hall in under 5 min. There were multiple performances going on at once and we accidentally got ushered into the wrong area. If you don't speak German give yourself plenty of time to find the correct hall. The concert we saw was open seating with no bad seat in the house. The room was small enough that you could see all the musicians very well. There was a brief intermission which served drinks and lite snacks. The program was one euro. Highly recommend so that you can follow along!

Vienna is one of the most cultural cities on the planet - that's just a fact. And with hundreds of theatres, opera houses, and concert halls it's hard to often pick favorites. But surely one of the best is the Konzerthaus of Vienna. This busy and impressive looking edifice actually has four concert halls within its walls. The largest is the Great Hall which is truly impressive - catch it often on TV. Then there is the Mozartsaal and the Schubertsaal for slightly smaller concerts or recitals. And finally there is the new Beriosaal for more intimate affairs. There are several places to eat, drink, and socialize inside the Konzerthaus ... and it is well-served by public transit. Okay, of course the Musikverein in Vienna is even more famous around the world but the Konzerthaus is a close second and it is well-worth checking out their diverse concert offerings.

Gayle and I attended a practice performance of the Vienna Philharmonic at the Wiener Konzerthaus last Fall. We had seen to local actors trying to entice us to buy tickets to a Mozart Concert and weren't really interested. So when we looked at the schedule and saw a chance to hear a world-class orchestra play Mozart (and other composers), that was a real deal classical dream come true! At the Wiener Konzerthaus, we put on our best vacation clothes (slacks, long sleeve dress shirt and red wing shoes for me) and I felt very under dressed. I don't think anyone was really paying attention, but this building has high class coming out of its pores and just seems to demand respect from its patrons. We sat there for a couple hours in awe of both the orchestra and the concert hall, not to mention all the people watching opportunities on both sides of stage. At the same time, I had a wonderful time listening to the Vienna Philharmonic. Since it was a practice, the maestro stopped things and talked it over here and there. But we didn't mind. I left feeling uplifted by the music and feeling that I had won the cultural lottery for my tourist day.
