Looking for recommendations for a classical music concert on a Monday evening in late May in Salzburg. We will be staying at the Hotel Elefant in Old Town. Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

It depends on what you are looking for! If you're a serious classical music aficionado and want a lengthy concert in a historically appropriate setting, Rick has his suggestions for that in the Salzburg Book.
We were in Salzburg last July, however, and did the Mozart concert and dinner at the castle. Some people say it's touristy, but hey, we are tourists, aren't we? I thought the meal was quite good and it was outside with an absolutely stunning view. Then we listened to some really talented musicians in a lovely room in the castle. I went with my two 20-something kids and their friend and we all enjoyed our evening immensely.
