It was a Wonderfull expirience!! Dimitry it's a prodige ,, Good bless his talent and his passion to play the violin. I have never felt so close to heaven, it was 2017 when I saw the Church going through restauretion, seeing it the ceilings finished make me cry. Thank for bringing so beautiful memories.

Fabulous setting. The church looks like oks absolutely gorgeous at night with the reflection in the pond in front of it. The acoustics in the church were superb. It was a sold out show and I am glad I booked our tickets on headout in advance

The concert was wonderful; I recommend everyone listen to classical music in a church. Musicians are great, the acoustic is fantastic, but if you're buying a Category 3 ticket, I suggest arriving a little earlier to find a better spot.

The concert was eventually great BUT the acoustic of the church is not appropriate and we could not hear the music that well as it stayed in the vault where the orchestra was and did not expand throughout the church and the assembly. Despite all, the church by itself is a masterpiece so it is very agreable to look at it while listening to the music. I also found that the interventions in between of the soprano was not appropriate as it kind of broke the atmosphere of the Four Seasons. They should have been gathered at the end as a second, different, part.

The musicians were wonderful and the church is a special place to enjoy Vivaldi. That said, the benches are very hard and hit the back at weird heights. Also the lead violinist did not introduce himself or any of the musicians. And there was no paper program. He also said nothing about Vivaldi or TheFour Seasons composition, history and enduring legacy. Engaging the audience mak s for a much more enjoyable experience.

The setting is absolutely spectacular. The church is magnificent , not overly ornate, beautifully designed and art filled everywhere you look. The musicians were very professional, elegant, talented, classy, just magnificent! The singer was a surprise for me. I did not expect there to be singing. He was fabulous. A wonderful experience I recommend this event to everyone. You don't have to be a music lover to truly enjoy this experience.

Set in Vienna’s iconic Karlskirche, this 1-hour concert features Vivaldi’s Four Seasons — a vivid journey through spring, summer, autumn, and winter.

Performed by Orchestra 1756, known for their historically informed style and period instruments, the ensemble delivers Vivaldi’s score with striking clarity and character.

Experience the drama of The Four Seasons through expressive solos and dynamic ensemble passages, echoing birdsong, storms, rustling leaves, and icy winds.

Admire Karlskirche’s Baroque grandeur — marble columns, golden altars, ornate stucco, and vivid frescoes glowing under soft evening light.

Did you know Vivaldi composed The Four Seasons while working at a girls’ orphanage? It’s reimagined here with precision by an acclaimed ensemble.
