We're not classical music fans, but we all agree this was an exceptional experience. The intensity in the musicians, the music, the sound, the environment, all of it was excellent. get the tier one seats, get there early and get front row if you can!

We loved the Vienna Classical Concert at St. Peter’s Church. The setting was stunning and created such a beautiful atmosphere, and the acoustics really enhanced the music. The musicians were excellent, and the program of Mozart, Vivaldi, and Beethoven pieces was performed with real skill and emotion. A memorable and highly enjoyable evening in Vienna—well worth it.

    Fine performance, beautiful venue, but hot, hot, hot

    Michael_H, Aug 2026
    The concert was wonderful, and the musicians were outstanding. No complaints with any of that. Unfortunately, the church was so hot inside that I almost had to leave early. This is no one’s fault, of course, but I do wish that there had at least been a few fans to move the air around or something. I was very impressed that the performers powered through it all looking always very professional.

    Wonderful evening in a beautiful setting

    We heard about this concert from fellow travelers and got tickets through Viator while eating lunch. The church is gorgeous and the music amazing. Great last minute decision. Highly recommend.

    Loved just being present with the live performance and it was special being inside St. Peter’s Church.

    Awesome

    Kenneth_H, Aug 2026
    Easy to get to by taxi. Variety if string music, mozart and Handel. Venue at St Peter's cathedral was awesome. Loved the church style.

    Richard_L, Aug 2026
    Seats were most uncomfortable and not sure why we would have paid AUD 20 more per seat than if we had booked direct. Overall concert was as expected

    Super Enchanting!

    Tom_J, Jul 2026
    A stunning performance on the atmosphere of St Peter’s Church. Don’t miss it. The string quartet was astonishing in their presentation.

    Incredible

    cristina_p, Jul 2026
    Gorgeous place, incredible sound, and professional inspiring musicians. Would recommend to all and only one hour with 7 different composers which was impressive!

    Church was warm, dress appropriately, concert was so beautiful and the church was spectacular, highly recommended!

    A must in Vienna

    Alexandre_F, Jul 2026
    I haven’t been in a classical concert before and this experience did not disappoint. The fee was worth it every euro, the pieces were amazingly played and I would definitely repeat if I come back to Vienna. Additionally, the scene was compared to none.

    St Peter’s Church Concert

    Michael_T, Jul 2026
    We spent a very pleasant evening at St. Peter’s church listening to some very talented musicians. The beautiful old church venue seemed a perfect fit for the music. I wonder if the seating could be made a bit more comfortable, but maybe that is the price to be paid for the surroundings of a 300 year old church.

    The music was lovely and...

    Ria_H, Jul 2026
    The music was lovely and the setting of the church enhanced the experience. If you enjoy classical music and wonderful musicians this your venue. I do wish that someone from the venue could have helped us with a cab for our return.

    Chopin concert

    Sarah_C, Jul 2026
    This was a nice experience. Venue small and pleasant. Pianist was very talented and the performance was very good.

    Must do when in Vienna

    Elpida_A, Jul 2026
    The church was incredible…and made for a wonderful venue for the concert. It was smaller than you would think but made for a truly intimate evening. We sat in the middle/center of the church but had a great view and overall fantastic experience!

    It's a must for music...

    ErnestMichael_O, Jul 2026
    It's a must for music enthusiasts. The four musicians were very professional and animated during their performance. The beautiful baroque church setting added to the great atmosphere.

    Wow!

    Jen_E, Jul 2026
    WOW!!! Just, WOW!!! I didn't think I liked classical music ...until I attended this concert! :-) So impressed with the song choices and the performance, it brought me to tears. Incredibly talented musicians. Absolutely beautiful building. It was a small and intimate performance and the acoustics in that room were perfect. We were lucky enough to sit in the front row and I would highly recommend it. We sat in the chairs, because I read the pews were very uncomfortable. The chairs weren't great either but I was so mesmerized by the music that it didn't bother me too much.

    Not an as expected experience!

    Helen_V, Jul 2026
    The building was too hot with only 2 small fans, no toilet facilities available and seating extremely uncomfortable, we expected a large orchestra but instead we had 4 musicians, with very much the same music, we stayed around 30 mins and left as it was so uncomfortable and hot! Wouldn’t recommend during the summer! This should be pointed out to people booking! I did request a partial refund but was denied by the operators!

    Take a seat pillow to enjoy the evening

    Ian_B, Jul 2026
    What a beautiful setting, with skilled musicians playing exquisite music. If you are able to, booking seats at the front is worth it - BUT you want sit in actual chairs -not the pews which are so uncomfortable that after 10 minutes you are wriggling to try to find a comfortable position which never arrives and leaves you hoping for to concert to end early. I managed to move seats between brackets but would have found it torture if I had been unable to do so. I am 6ft 4 inches (193-194 cms) but even my 5ft 8” wife also found the pews uncomfortable. When you looked around you saw a number of people wriggling. (Made me think that Austrian Catholics musst be hardy people, but at the same time if they want to encourage the current generation to return to church the seats are a great place to start!). Thoroughly enjoyed the music. Can’t say the same about the pews.

    A must experience

    Hagit_L, Jul 2026
    We had an absolutely wonderful evening at the Classic Ensemble Vienna concert. The musicians were exceptionally talented, and every piece was performed with remarkable precision, passion, and elegance. The program featured a beautiful selection of masterpieces by Mozart, Vivaldi, Schubert, Bach, Borodin, and Dvořák, making for a truly memorable experience. The intimate atmosphere allowed us to fully appreciate the artistry and emotion of the performance. If you’re visiting Vienna and want to experience world-class classical music in an authentic setting, this concert is an absolute must. Highly recommende.

    This was an incredible...

    Andrea_R, Jul 2026
    This was an incredible experience in a stunning backdrop. The musicians were incredible and it was very enjoyable. Definitely recommend sitting in the standalone chairs versus the pews when you arrive - the pews get quite uncomfortable to sit in. And you may want to bring a mini portable fan, no AC and gets quite hot on a July summer day.

    Music at its best!

    Ferda_O, Jul 2026
    The concert was excellent.Four beautiful artists played my favorite pieces from Mozart, Vivaldi, Bach etc...

    Great evening listening to a string quartet in St Peter’s Church

    mdorff, Jul 2026
    Wonderful experience to listen to a string quartet in an intimate setting in a Baroque church in the city center of Vienna. We ordered the expensive tickets so we could sit closer to the musicians. We arrive at St Peter’s about 45 minutes before the performance, and we were able to choose front row pew seats. There were three rows of individual chairs in front of us, but we had a great view of the musicians since the pews were higher up than the chairs. The pews were not comfortable but the view was superb. The setting was wonderful, hearing a concert in a church. Great experience!

    Beloved music

    Excellent quartet in beautiful surroundings. It’s worth it to book seats near the front. We had a great time.

    Amy_E, Jul 2026
    We all thought lit would have been nice if the performers would have announced the title and composer of each piece, despite the program. We realize the language disparity would preclude further interaction with the audience The performers were absolutely incredible and we we really enjoyed their amazing talent. It was a lovely evening.

    Exceptional experience for everyone (not just classic music fans)
