This translated into their performances of the pieces and their engagement with the audience. The Orangery was a beautiful venue - historic and not too big. We were lucky enough to be there when the Christmas markets were on. The lady at the ticket office gave us a voucher to get a free drink from one of the stalls which served the most delicious chicken schnitzel and potatoes in a cone. All round a wonderful night in Vienna.”

The lady at the desk ensured we felt welcome and were well looked after from start to finish. Fantastic and cultural ❤️”

Now the bad - the venue is mediocre and bland . The sound quality was not good - needs to be crisp and sharp especially violins. The interior was extremely hot . 30F outside but the inside was like 80F . I know it’s a European thing but it was uncomfortable. Only one exit and the lines to get your jackets at the end of the performance was extremely long .”

We enjoyed it very much but disappointed it was not in the Gold Room.”
