Top Vienna Classical Music

If you want to experience a Viennese orchestral concert in Vienna, skip the large touristic productions and opt for an intimate, carefully curated concert instead, with seating close to the stage. Taking place at the historic Künstlerhaus in the central Innerer Stadt, the concert offers roughly an hour of classical music, followed by a glass of sparkling wine in the hall with the musicians themselves.

This is not a dance class. It's your first encounter with a living Viennese tradition, led by certified Dance Master Aga Bohun in an authentic Viennese ballroom — offered during Vienna's festive Christmas and New Year season. No prior dance experience required. In 50 minutes, you and your partner learn the fundamentals of the Viennese Waltz: posture, rhythm, rotational movement, and the connection that makes this dance unlike any other. Teaching is intimate and unhurried, with individual guidance for each couple — the focus is on shared enjoyment, not technical perfection. By the end, you'll be moving together to classical Viennese Waltz music. Not watching. Dancing. Aga Bohun has taught the Viennese Waltz for nearly 30 years — one of Vienna's most experienced Dance Masters, and this is her Waltz School. Includes complimentary access to the Waltz Club, our private online community with recap videos to keep practising together.

This isn't just a concert to watch — it's your Petite Vienna Ball you take part in. Live orchestra, then you dance the Viennese Waltz yourself, no experience needed. It's the public premiere of your Waltz in Vienna signature service that existed only within private events for fifteen years. A new monthly series, limited to 60 guests, so the dance floor never feels overcrowded, and the orchestra is incomparably close.
