It was a good show, but I should have really done more research. I went in thinking it was a Christmas/New year concert and the majority of music played was strauss
Lovely music in a great setting but would have liked to know in advance what pieces of music were being played.
A beautiful venue for an amazing strings quartet. Our entire group aged 13-74 enjoyed the performance!!
We were in Vienna for 3 days but I can definitely tell that you have to experience this concert even if you are in Vienna for few days like us. It was magical and I didn't understand how time fly away during the concert!
Beautiful place music was good. It was small and not so grandiose compared to the price is charged another words. You couldn’t feel the music, but the music was played and well played. For the price feeling the music physically and filling the entire church would have been grandiose for the amount charged Would you recommend the experience last night? The pews are very narrow for seating which was a premium up charge and uncomfortable to sit for an hour..
Gorgeous church and amazing music. The performance was magical. Perfect way to spend Christmas night.
Wonderful experience. We loved it. Music was amazing. Art and talent in a place. Definitely recommended.
It was fantastic really atmospheric. The location added to the experience. I just wish people would not talk. They think they are being quiet but the mumbled voices can spoil the experience.
no Christmas music. The quartet seemed out of tune and we did not know any of the music. The seats were very uncomfortable
Perfect Christmas experience!
The setting is unbelievably beautiful and the musicians were incredibly talented!
A very special experience. The venue provided a special acoustic to the passionate performance led by a very talented group. Would very much recommend.
Do not miss this opportunity!! You will not regret it. Amazing music in a historic intimate chapel!!
Beautiful music in a beautiful setting! We sat in the back so we could admire the church while listening to the Orchestra.
This was a classical music concert with a string quartet in the amazingly beautiful St Peter’s Church in Vienna, a short walk from St Stephen’s Cathedral.
The concert was an hourlong, with no introductions or programme which felt odd and we were packed in like sardines some in pews and some on chairs.
The music and setting was beautiful and much enjoyed but felt it was a little disorganised and with a few tweaks would be much better.
Nice . Church is beautiful. Music is good. Overall not really worth the price though . They did not start on time And it was very cold
This was an amazing concert by an extremely talented string quartet, including two violins, a viola, and a cello in the beautiful setting of Saint Peter‘s Catholic Church. It was a perfect way to end our trip to Vienna!
Nice overall experience in beautiful surroundings. However no hint of Xmas in either the surroundings or music.
Disappointing.
Lovely evening; Beautiful church and fine classical music. Quartet plays for over an hour. A few things to note; although you have ticket on phone you must get a paper ticket before seated. Paper tickets available as you enter. No seat assignments. Come early for best seats; suggest 1/2 hr. There is no intermission, etc. just beautiful music. Church is COLD so dress appropriately.
The church is very beautiful and alot to look at as you listen to the classical music. Even If you know very little classical music, you will recognise some of the pieces. The location is especially nice at this time of year with lors of lights on the surrounding streets.
A wonderful concert in the most beautiful setting! St Peter’s is the perfect place to experience such a great concert.
The Christmas and New Year's concert at St. Peter's Church in Vienna was an extraordinary experience. The superb atmosphere was complemented by the incredible performance of the string quartet. The music of Mozart, Bach, Vivaldi, and other composers was deeply heartwarming.
The tour company cancelled with less than 24 hours notice then gave me an option for a private tour for another 150 euros. I declined. Please ensure any charges are refunded.

It is nor for us. Please review correct activity.
A very enjoyable evening at St. Peter’s Church. The one-hour string quartet concert was a great way to listen to some of the Vienna’s (the world’s) greatest composers’ music in the most ambient of surroundings. Worth getting there early to secure the best seating for your category. We arrived an hour early to pick up our voucher and then entered the church 45-minutes before the concert started. A very accomplished quartet who captivated the audience with their renditions.
If you’re wanting traditional Christmas songs as I was hoping, there wasn’t any. Still amazing talent and a great concert. I was expecting traditional Christmas songs but I’m still very glad we went.
Nice Christmas concert was a great way to end our stay. Gave a little touch of the culture in the area. Highly recommend.
Lovely setting and the concert was fantastic. Get there early to get seating of your choice (pew or chair).
A lovely evening of classical music performed by a string quartet of 3 violinists and a cellist set in the baroque splendour of St Peters Church in Vienna.
Absolutely beautiful. The 3 violinists and a cellist were amazing...such talent. And the church itself was breathtaking.
The concert was lovely, the church was beautiful, the mouse running under my chair during the concert not so lovely.
This tour gives you a look at the history of Vienna. Our guide was very knowledgeable and provided some interesting facts.
