Christopher comes back to the front of the stage for one of 4 curtain calls!
This concert was perhaps the most memorable for me. The Haydn Hall was absolutely magical, with perfect acoustics. The audience was very responsive and we received a standing ovation! (rare for Europe)
We have only a few hours to tour Vienna after our morning concert in Eisenstadt. One highlight was the Belvedere Palace.
The Belvedere was built in 1697 for Prince Eugene of Savoy.
We toured the exterior of the palace, but did not have time to enter the museum. On another visit to Vienna, I plan to reserve a day or two to explore.
We enter the restaurant for a wonderful evening of food, wine and entertainment.
Only 30 minutes outside of Vienna in the surrounding hills, the view of the vineyard behind the restaurant was lovely.
The Austrian singer was quite funny and talented. He especially seemed to enjoy serenading the girls with Austrian versions of American songs.
Elena and the girls made new friends with the Austrian musicians who sang the Beatles, Edelweiss and tried (rather unsuccessfully) to teach us to yodel.
A traditional Austrian dinner at the winery restaurant. Everything was very high quality, but we missed fresh vegetables.
