Concentus Musicus Wien live in Vienna

Experience Concentus Musicus Wien live on June 9th

Concentus Musicus Wien will perform at the Musikverein in Vienna, Austria on June 9, 2026. The ensemble is recognized for its historically informed performance practice of Renaissance and Baroque music. They specialize in vocal and instrumental works from the 16th to 18th centuries, utilizing period instruments and striving for authentic interpretations based on scholarly research into performance techniques of the time. Their repertoire frequently features composers such as Monteverdi, Schütz, and Bach.

The Musikverein, home to the Vienna Philharmonic, holds significant cultural importance. Completed in 1870, it was designed by Hans von Hansmann and represents a prime example of High Renaissance Revival architecture. The building’s most celebrated feature is the Golden Hall (Goldener Saal), renowned for its exceptional acoustics – consistently ranked among the best in the world. This acoustic quality stems from its unique dimensions, wooden interior construction, and careful architectural planning. Beyond hosting orchestral concerts, particularly the New Year's Concert broadcast globally, the Musikverein also stages chamber music performances and other musical events. It has been a central location for musical life in Vienna for over 150 years and continues to be a prestigious venue internationally.
