There are so many exciting concerts and recitals by amazing talent all over Vienna, but things can get pricey if you let them. With a little research, yesterday we went to a two hour rehearsal in St. Peters; organ, strings, and soloists of the highest caliber.
This morning we heard the Vienna Boys Choir: they sing for mass at a small chapel within the Habsburg grounds. We then dashed a couple hundred steps to the St. Augustinerkirche to hear the Vienna Philharmonic and bombastic organ play for another service! All of it sounded like heaven and the goosebumps were free!
no photos allowed in the churches, so it’s me being ‘Fall-ish’!!

I am sure you are loving all the music! And this picture is very cute! When I first saw the pic, and title….I thought it was going to be that everyone dances around and throws leaves….:-)
Such an awesome opportunity! And that’s just the way to go about it–find rehearsals, and church services, etc. I love rehearsals b/c often you get a little window into the process that deepens the experience so much. Thanks for the post! Love the leaves, too. Not enough color around here for any of us. Thanksgiving Day was in the high 80s. Sigh.
What a way to get into the spirit of the season, I wish I could be a little DVR in your brain to soak it all up with you! Enjoy every minute experience every you can and bring home all your wonderful memories to share with us all
Happy Thanksgiving!
