Franui live in Vienna

Experience Franui live on November 7th

Franui will perform at the Burgtheater in Vienna on November 7, 2026. The ensemble is known for its unique blend of traditional Austrian folk music – particularly *Volksmusik* from the Alpine regions – with elements of jazz, classical, and contemporary composition. Their arrangements often feature unconventional instrumentation and vocal techniques, creating a sound that is both deeply rooted in tradition and strikingly modern. They frequently employ yodeling alongside instruments like accordion, guitar, clarinet, and double bass.

The Burgtheater, situated on the Ringstraße in Vienna’s first district, holds significant cultural importance as Austria’s National Theatre. Originally opened in 1876, it boasts a rich history of German-language drama and has hosted performances by many prominent actors and playwrights. The building itself is a notable example of Ringstraßenstil architecture, characterized by its elaborate ornamentation and grand scale.

Throughout its existence, the Burgtheater has undergone several renovations but retains much of its original opulent interior. While primarily dedicated to theatrical productions – plays and operas – the venue occasionally hosts concerts by artists who complement its artistic profile or offer innovative interpretations within a historical setting. Franui's performance represents one such occasion.
