The concerts

The Mozarthaus is, as the name suggests, the house where Mozart lived for three years during his long stay in Vienna.
There is something particularly charming about the idea of listening to Mozart’s music in a building that once echoed to the sound of his piano or violin, and where he entertained such musical greats as Haydn.
And even more charming to imagine listening to the exact same pieces today that Mozart composed in that very location so long ago.
A small venue tucked away inside the Mozarthaus (now a museum) makes just such a unique experience possible.
Summer recitals and more
A favourite with visitors, for example, is the now traditional July and August Summer Concert piano recitals, normally held on Thursday afternoons.
In 2023, concert pianist SoRyang returned to perform the following Mozart works (all written just a few feet above the venue):
- Overture from the Marriage of Figaro (version for piano); KV 492
- Piano sonata Nr.11; KV 331
- Rondo in D major; KV 485
- Rondo in F major; KV 494
These summer recitals are, of course, not the only concerts to grace the venue.
Others include a varied programme of pieces and performers, as well as works by composers other than Mozart.
The Wiener Ensemble performs several times a week*, for example, and a random check in the past revealed a schedule with:
- Mozart Academy concerts on the theme of sonatas for violin and piano (one date featured historical instruments)
- A concert and evening complementing the theme of a concurrent special exhibition in the Mozarthaus
- The Bösendorfer Saturday afternoon cycle of “Mozart & More” concerts
Check the Mozarthaus listings for up-to-date details on forthcoming events.
Tickets and visitor tips
Ticketing arrangements depend on the concert in question, so check the links above for information.
Don’t forget the Mozarthaus, along with the Mozart apartment, are both worth a visit in their own right. They take you on a musical and biographical journey through Mozart’s time in Vienna.
How to get to the venue
The concerts take place a few rolls of a chocolate marzipan Mozart ball from the very centre of Vienna. See the main museum article for travel tips.
