Riccardo Muti and the Vienna Philharmonic played the orchestral version of “The seven last word” at the Theater and der Wien, Vienna.
In Eisenstadt, the official memorial season started on the 31st of March. Nikolaus Harnoncourt and the Concentus Musicus performed Haydn symphonies at Esterhazy castle.
