Concert in Salzburg

Hi all! I'm seeking recommendations for a concert in Salzburg. As I understand it, there are many choices, but I would love to have any personal recommendations. Just looking for a cultural experience while visiting, nothing that is just a tourist trap (like costumed performers, let's say), just talented musicians. Thank you for your suggestions!

Hi! That sounds like a fantastic plan—Salzburg is an amazing place for classical music lovers. If you're looking for an authentic experience, I’d highly recommend checking out concerts at the Mozarteum or Salzburg Cathedral, where you can enjoy performances by incredibly talented musicians in a historic setting. Another great option is the Salzburg Palace Concerts at Mirabell Palace, which often features chamber music in a beautiful venue.

Hope you have a wonderful time in Salzburg! For more helpful resources, visit IESCO Bill Check.

We enjoyed the concert at the Golden Hall in the Hohensalzburg Fortress. It is a wonderful intimate setting with outstanding musicians. We did not do the dinner, only the concert. The ensemble is amazingly talented and the program was 90 minutes. If you go to classictic.com you can get tickets and see the program. Ours included Mozart, Hayden, Schubert, Dvorak, and Strauss. This was a highlight of our trip and worth flying across the ocean for!

We enjoyed our concert at Mirabell Palace. Would highly recommend as it is very intimate and not a bad seat in the room.

I believe the Salzburg Pass gives you free entrance to a concert in the Mirabell Chapel for an intimate concert.

When I went, there was a violinist, a cellist and a pianist playing the classical composers. It was in a beautiful, small setting and you can come dress as casual as you like. If not sure you'd want to sit for a whole concert in the Cathedral, I recommend the Mirabell Chapel.

The Salzburg Cathedral does have an organ recital which I highly recommend as they play all 5-6 organs. Amazing and a good rest stop.
