Then make haste this evening to Schönbrunn for the annual, free concert in the garden put on by the Vienna Philharmonic. It is utterly spectacular.
sad - the BBC has always broadcast that but it appears to be conspicuous by its absence.... boo hoo
Hi Emily,
Alas, I am not in Vienna today, but I wanted to thank you for your participation here on the forum. Yours posts made my visit to Vienna last month more enjoyable!
Thanks!
If you are in the States , do not despair ! PBS always shows this program , but it will likely be aired at some point in July . Watch your local PBS station for date and time .
Thanks Emily - BBC Four is where I went. I just hope that it appears sometime in the summer.... I can picture it - much like New Years Day it is to one degree predictable - again, much like The Last Night at the Proms.
That's why I like it so much.
I've checked a full 7 days
The BBC have a page for it but no scheduled broadcast.. boo hiss
For the next 6 days (until June 22) you can watch the concert here:

Edit: As it seems that this video is geo-locked you will need a VPN for access.
Emily, thanks for the information. I’ll be in Vienna next June, dates are still flexible. The concert sounds wonderful. Is it the same date or day of the month each year?
The date is different every year, but usually in late May or early June.
This Wikipedia article has a chart that shows the past dates (in German but the dates are obvious):

You are welcome. If you want to watch the concert in HD quality you may try it from ZDF. It is geo-locked for Austria, Germany and Switzerland. I use Windscribe as VPN and had never problems accessing ZDF using a German IP address.

For finding a certain transmission in the German speaking world this is a good source:

For a broader range of TV stations there is also:

But you have to register, and to utilize all features you must pay. But the price for one download is in the cent range.
@Nigel -- better late than never, BBC Four is airing the summer concert on Jul 3
