Executive and Artistic Director O’Neill Michael Proud Season Sponsor Yo-Yo Ma It was in Vienna that Schubert, the son of a Viennese schoolteacher, grew to be one of the most prolific and transformative composers of chamber Festivals music and lieder; in which Beethoven, famously in his Ninth Symphony, gave voice to the Enlightenment ideals that were sweeping Europe at the time; and in which Mahler reinvented the modern opera house and created a body of all-encompassing, heartrending, and euphoric lied and symphonic works. It was in Vienna at the turn of the 20th century that Freud’s insights altered existing ideas about the human mind, in much the same way as Schoenberg, Berg, Webern, and their compatriots sought to reorganize musical material into a hierarchy that reflected a new age. It was in Vienna that the scandals and triumphs that rocked the Court Opera made front-page news and in which, as the center of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, politics found a pressurized crucible that wrought havoc on the world. And it was in Vienna that many filmmakers found the perfect setting to explore the titanic political struggles that divided Europe for much of the past century.

Carnegie Hall salutes the extraordinary artistic legacy of this cultural capital with concerts that feature symphonic and operatic masterpieces, including a rare seven-concert residency by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra joined by the for two events. The celebration also goes citywide with events at February 21–March 16, 2014 leading cultural institutions, including film series, panel discussions, art exhibitions, and even a Viennese Opera Ball, highlighting A glittering cultural jewel at the geographical center of Europe, Vienna’s unrivaled cultural heritage as well as its ongoing role at Vienna has for centuries drawn artists, dreamers, and innovators the heart of Europe. from all corners of the continent to its dazzling intellectual and artistic life.
