Need to better bring Mozart's life in Salzburg into the selections played.

Joseph_R

, Oct 2021

Going up to the fortress and seeing the lights of Salzburg. The crowd was small; I think that reduced the energy in the concert room. need to weave the story of Mozart's life in Salzburg more into the music/music selections. I didn't come away with a greater understanding/appreciation of Mozart.

The programme didn’t match the title.

Very good musicians but we excpected more Mozart. The title of the programme says ’the best of Mozart’ but it was just one short example of his famous music. Others were Shubert and Dvorak.

Exceptional concert at the fortress

, Jun 2019

We were expecting dinner with the concert and were embarrassed to find out our tickets only covered the concert. We would up paying for the dinner and enjoyed the meal tremendously. The concert was a "not to be missed" event. I won't spoil it for you, but please attend this event!

If you go a bit early because you don't know where you are going..... there are no signs and no one knows anything. Much later, right before the concert there was a sign out. FYI the lift stays open for you when the concert is done. Great music!!! I was very moved.

What a lovely way to spend an evening in Salzburg! The music is exquisite and the view from the top of Hohenburg Fortress is breathtaking! Be sure to take time to walk around the fortress before the concert for amazing views of the surrounding city and the not-too-distant mountains!

pretty nice and easy experience. The set list was nice. It felt a little short though cuz the first half I fell asleep a little. lol... means the music is very soothing. Because I bought a Salzburg Card, so the cable car up to the fortress was free and took 2 minutes. No need to hike the mountain with the stairs, unless you want some exercise.

The musicians were talented. Acoustics were great. These tickets included the funicular ride an hour prior to the concert. I assumed that we could see the fortress, in that time and double our time by viewing the fortress and then attending the concert. We ended up buying a Salzburg card as our Eagles Nest tour was canceled that day and toured the fortress during the afternoon. There is more to see and enjoy to the fortress than just the hour we would have had prior to the concert. The one page programs were 2eurocouldn't this be included in the price of the tickets? BUT then the music selections were changed so the programs were invalid.

The concert and setting were very good but the signage to find the concert hall was very lacking. I agree with previous reviews there are an awful lot of steps to go up to reach the venue. The views from the fortress are stunning.
