ABR Vienna Tour 2024 (sold out)

15-27 October 2024

‘The 2023 ABR tour of Vienna and its museums and galleries was led superbly by Peter Rose and Christopher Menz. Based at an excellent inner-city hotel, the tour was complemented by premium seats to two operas at the Vienna State Opera and several world-class concerts, including the Vienna Philharmonic at the famous Musikverein. This was an outstanding experience for lovers of fine art, architecture and music.”

Dr Alastair Jackson AM

This most successful tour was led by Christopher Menz, ABR’s Development Consultant and a former Director of the Art Gallery of South Australia.

The focus of the thirteen-day residential tour was art and music. It focused on the spectacular collections amassed by the Habsburgs over centuries, the musical heritage of Haydn, Mozart, Schubert and Beethoven, and the striking modernist architecture of the city. The tour also included excursions to Schönbrunn, Klosterneuburg and the Wachau Valley. The musical program included six performances in Vienna’s finest venues – the State Opera, the Musikverein and the Konzerthaus – and featured Australian artists Simone Young, Nicole Car and Barrie Kosky.
