The concert summer in Gastein

Musical enjoyment at Klassik:Sommer

Enjoying music in the valley and on the mountain pasture - that's what Klassik in Gastein stands for. Visitors can expect a varied program of top-class classical and contemporary cultural events. This musical highlight is once again one of the fixed points in the Salzburg region's calendar of events this year.

The Salzburg Philharmonic Orchestra will once again bring concerts of the highest caliber to Gastein. Under the direction of conductor Elisabeth Fuchs, the renowned orchestra presents a varied repertoire in the Kursaal Bad Hofgastein that invites you to dream, dance and enjoy.

Viennese salon music, operetta and musical melodies, film music and classical dance music characterize the program of the Bad Gastein spa orchestra. Atmospheric performance venues such as the Vienna Hall in the Grand Hotel de l'Europe and the concert pavilion in the Merangarten underline the special ambience.

Music has always been an integral part of the Gastein summer - just like the impressive backdrop of the Gastein mountains and the wide range of activities on offer in the region.
