Wonderful - Wonderful concert in a beautiful setting. Unfortunately we missed the first part because we mistakenly went to the Schonbrun Palace. The names are very similar and we were told this error happens often. It would help if the concert were advertised clearly as Schonborn NOT Schonbrun.

The concert was amazing... - The concert was amazing And the musicians were very skilled, entertaining and engaging. It was a bonus that we had two singers join the performance as well. You could tell the musicians enjoyed performing together. The room was beautiful and it really took you back into time as if you were listening to the music when it was first played. The only negative I have for this activity is the room was small and very hot with chairs very close together.

Wonderful Performance - Great experience to share with family and friends, a musical journey among the ages of classical music, performed by a wonderful orchestra.

Pleasant evening - Wasn't quite what we originally expected as the venue and
orchestra is quite small. However we were pleasantly surprised. Talented musicians with a sense of humour. Would definitely recommend

Good music but mediocre management - Management/logistics of this concert is very disappointing. They canceled my intended date/time so I had to rearrange my schedule for the day. There is a 1€ cash only mandatory coat check (cheap yes, but if it’s mandatory it should be included in the ticket price!). Latecomers are seated between pieces throughout the performance so the flow of music is constantly interrupted. And most egregiously- the venue apparently freely allows photos/videos, so if you’re not in the front row enjoy staring at a sea of phones instead of the musicians you paid to see.
This is not intended as a rating for them, however; the musicians and singers clearly put effort and care into their performance (though none are credited by name in the program) and frankly I am embarrassed for them that they’re performing in a poorly managed venue. I saw a concert just the previous day in Salzburg that was €13 cheaper for the front row than the cheapest tickets here, and it was much better.

Bad organized - Nice concert but bad organization no one showed us the place and just before the start with the room now full we were demoted to the bottom

Disappointing. - A disappointment.
We were expecting an orchestra with conductor.
We met 6 musicians without a conductor.
Staff not really friendly rather disinterested. Seem to have the same thing too often" finished.
It wasn't worth paying.

I wouldn't bother, if I were you! - This has to be the worst event I have been to in some time. The main issue were the awful staff who completely failed to greet you. Surely, to the point of rude, unhelpful and mostly miserable. They offered only 1 bottle of wine, white. It was warm so I asked them for another, which they did do, with total reluctance. The venue was adequate, with a vase of fake flowers. The actual performance was fine, the Vienna Baroque Orchestra were good, along with the 2 singers. But the lack of genuine atmosphere let the whole thing down. I am aware we were not paying £100's of pounds for a ticket, but the description of an Orchestra was totally exaggerated. There where 5 musicians and 2 singers!

FRAUD - They advertise misleadingly, which is totally prohibited throughout the European Union. In their booklet they announce that an internationally recognized orchestra of sixteen musicians will perform, but in reality it is a four-person quartet. The room in which they play is not a concert hall, but a rented room inside a historic building where several logistics, management, consulting, etc. companies are located. This quartet cannot perform the music in the programme of the booklet that they sell to the public. When you enter, you are given a program printed on a piece of paper that is totally different from the one they use to sell tickets. When we saw all this, we informed the person responsible that it was a fraud and requested the return of our money, but he refused to return the money and covered his ears with his fingers. Be very careful with this “orchestra”. They are looking for tourists on the street, near the city’s landmarks, and sell tickets with the help of a misleading advertising brochure.

Unfortunately, a large... - Unfortunately, it's a big disappointment. In my view, the event is a classic tourist trap and pure money making. The concert lasted only about an hour including a break, which is absolutely inappropriate for the price.
The pieces of music were also played remarkably quickly, so there was hardly any musical enjoyment or atmosphere.
Particularly annoying: Tickets are also sold to parents with very young children. This is understandable in principle, but totally inappropriate for a classical concert. The children could not naturally remain calm, so one was accompanied by speaking parents and children throughout the concert. Concentrated listening was unthinkable.
For 60 € I feel this event is a clear rip-off. I wouldn't recommend them.
