Das MuTh

Classical ballet and modern technique unite to create a unique artistic masterpiece, where exquisite dancers literally light up the stage with dazzling performances and costumes that sparkle in the dark. The timeless fairytale of the cursed princess awakened by the kiss of her true love is brought to life in breathtaking visual splendor, as perfect pirouettes and gravity-defying leaps cast a kaleidoscope of colors across the stage. A magically beautiful production that transcends tradition and takes you on a journey beyond imagination.

Ballet Of Lights

Augarten

The world of music is waiting to be explored! So we invite our youngest discoverers to crawl, babble, laugh, listen, sing, play, and dance! Together with music educator Birgit Reithofer, we'll explore music with all our senses right on stage. Let yourselves be swept away and experience the sounds of violin, piano, guitar, or double bass up close. We look forward to making music and discovering together!

Concerts For The Very Youngest

The Candlelight Concerts are a series of music concerts launched by Fever, which aims to democratize access to culture by giving people around the world the opportunity to enjoy live music by candlelight, performed by local musicians in various stunning locations illuminated by thousands of candles.

Candllight Concert

“Here is magic. Into the realm of enchantment / the common word seems elevated… / and yet is truly like the call of the deaf, / calling for the invisible dove.” Thus ends Rainer Maria Rilke’s poem “Magic.” Rilke, a poet still deeply revered today, understood like few others how to capture feelings in words. The twin brothers Alexander and Konstantin Wladigeroff delve into his poetic universe and dedicate a musical homage to him with piano, clarinet, trumpet, flugelhorn, and vocals, in their own compositions and arrangements. Gerti Drassl, known from film and television, enchants the audience with a reading of selected poems.

In 2026, the United States of America will be 250 years old.Vienna Boys' ChoirVienna Boys' ChoirVienna Boys' ChoirThe Vienna Boys' Choir will congratulate the world with a program of American and Austrian music, including Beethoven's Ode to Joy in the "Joyful" version, Michael Jackson's "We Are the World," Johann Strauss's waltz "One Thousand and One Nights," and the Archduke Johann Yodel.

The Concert In The New Year

Everyday gestures, everyday sounds – condensed into a composition! Six hands make music, the instrument is a table: this is how Terry de Wey's "Musique du Table" comes to be. On the table, a bottle and a glass now play: with these props, the vocally and theatrically experienced harpist Veronica Klavzar and the percussionist Hannes Schöggl perform "Retrouvailles" by George Aperghis. "Intersections," by Hannes Schöggl and Veronica Klavzar, combines contemporary music and movement in an interdisciplinary concert performance with three performers. Not only the instrument, but also the body now participates – resonating. An experimental music and movement composition that not only shatters traditional notions of harp playing, but also opens up new perspectives on the question of what dance and what music are, what separates the two, and how much they have in common. Everyday human emotions such as tenderness, loneliness, dependence, fascination, enthusiasm, jealousy, envy, community, unity, and equality emerge in the individual scenes of the work. Hannes Schöggl has composed Christian Morgenstern's "Fish's Night Song" for three mouths: exquisite mouth percussion as an interactive animation – the audience is encouraged to click, smack, make lip and kissing sounds, and perform tongue gymnastics!

Table Music And Body Sound

TheNew Vienna Court ChapelIt was founded by Reinmar Wolf to present the music of the Strauss dynasty as it was customary in the 19th century – in varying ensembles: sometimes for dancing, sometimes as stylish background music for social gatherings. The program is a "Best of New Year's Concert" – not in elaborate arrangements, but faithfully reproduced in small chamber music ensembles, with and without vocals. It feels like stepping back into imperial times – it was wonderful, I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Cultural Lunch

This evening, the Jewish Chamber Orchestra Munich, under the direction of Daniel Grossmann, blends Klezmer, Wagner, and contemporary sounds. Joining them are the charismatic actor Stefan Merki and the captivating singer Ethel Merhaut. 
A poor Jewish musician, barely scraping by with wedding performances, fulfills a dream: with his hard-earned savings, he treats himself to a visit to the Imperial Court Theatre in Vienna. By chance, he hears – without any prior knowledge – Wagner's Lohengrin. The opera transforms his life: back in his shtetl, he insists on playing only Wagner's melodies at Jewish celebrations, no longer the traditional tunes – which naturally leads to conflict.

Mendele Lohengrin

Ursula Strauss's great acting skill lies in the sensitive intelligence with which she embodies her characters. Her expressive performances reveal a profound understanding of human contradictions, passions, and anxieties. She imbues all her characters with authenticity, dignity, and humor. It is with the diverse fates of women that the actress has first conquered the stage, then the silver screen, and since 2010, television audiences. For her portrayal of the life-loving wife in the Oscar-nominated film "Revanche," she received the Diagonale Special Prize; her chaotic, intuitive detective Angelika Schnell won a Romy Award; and for her portrayal of the courageous farmer in "Maybe in Another Life," she received the Austrian Film Award.

Letter From An Unknown Person

This is how they are known and loved all over the world: 24 boys in sailor suits and their conductor demonstrate that music is the international language of emotions.

Friday Afternoon

Soul, pop, classical – pianist Maria Radutu loves pushing boundaries. The song "Noches de insomnio" by singer and violinist Phoebe Violet sparked this collaborative program. Joining her is LYLIT, the singer and composer with the powerful soul voice, who engages in a dialogue on two pianos with Maria Radutu, while also singing herself. This creates an intense interplay of emotions, profound, through light and shadow, which they share with the audience. The songs of LYLIT and Phoebe Violet merge seamlessly with the classical pieces selected by Maria Radutu to form a captivating overall experience.

Maria Radutu & Lylit feat. Phoebe Violet

Together with the Viennese drummer and composer Fritz Rainer, the actor Philipp Hochmair presents an evening of Friedrich Schiller's ballads and poems imbued with the spirit of revolution. These works reflect Schiller's enthusiastic confidence in the individual's capacity to shape the course of history. In an experimental setting, the ballads encounter Fritz Rainer's soundscape, confronting Schiller's breathless Sturm und Drang with contemporary acoustic experiences.

Schiller Ballads

At the time this concert was being planned, the deranged American president was turning the USA upside down. As an observer, one is torn, since he was given this opportunity through a democratic process. On the other hand, one feels great empathy for all those who now have to worry about their livelihoods.
