The popular and internationally acclaimed Schönbrunn Palace Orchestra are set to return to Estonia by popular demand for two concerts this week. The first will take place on January 17 at the Alexela Concert Hall in Tallinn, with the second on the following day at the Vanemuine Concert Hall in Tartu.
For the sixth consecutive year, Estonian concertgoers will be able to enjoy concerts from the distinguished Viennese chamber ensemble, the Schönbrunn Palace Orchestra. Past shows have witnessed sold-out venues and standing ovations, which have solidified the orchestra’s reputation in Estonia.
Founded in 1997, the Schönbrunn Palace Orchestra boasts exceptionally skilled musicians from renowned Viennese orchestras. Their concerts at Schönbrunn Palace’s orangery, which have earned them widespread acclaim, are regularly watched by a global audience.
The upcoming concerts in Tallinn (January 17) and Tartu (January 18) will feature Johann Strauss’s iconic “Radetzk March”, along with other beloved compositions.
Some tickets for the concert in Tallinn are still available from Piletilevi. The concert in Tartu is sold out.
