The Easter-time music series gets underway on 31 March with the Vienna Philharmonic conducted by Philippe Jordan. They bring Beethoven's oratorium "Christus am Ölberge" to the place of its premiere performance, the Theater an der Wien.
This is followed here by Jacques Offenbach's opera "Les Contes d'Hoffmann" in the production by film director William Friedkin. Another superlative oratorium is on the program at Theater an der Wien with Johann Sebastian Bach's St. John Passion.
Martin Haselböck and the Vienna Academy perform Bach's St. Matthew Passion in the Minorite Church on Good Friday. The rest of the chamber music program here includes Baroque arias with the Bach Konsort Wien, gamba music by grand master Jordi Savall as well as choral music from Bruckner to Ligeti.
The festival ends on Easter Sunday with a performance by the Vienna Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Georges Prêtre with the program "Spring in Vienna" in the Musikverein.
