Classical music in Vienna
If a city is considered a “city of music,” there must be a good reason for that. In truth, there are many good reasons – and the historical one is just one of them. There is a lot of evidence of the glorious role that the City of Vienna has played in music history – and still plays: important composers were born or lived here and created their masterpieces: Mozart, Haydn, Schubert, Bruckner or Mahler. Already at that time, Vienna was considered a “world city of music”. Later it was composers like Schoenberg or Gottfried, who are considered “modern” classics whose musical home was Vienna.
