Wiener Hofmusikkapelle in Vienna
About
Vienna's Hofburgkapelle offers a captivating blend of history and music, with performances by the world-renowned Vienna Boys Choir. Nestled within the opulent Hofburg Palace complex, this chapel provides an acoustical haven where angelic voices fill the air with divine melodies, leaving a lasting impression of inner peace. While the choir's performance during the Mass is a highlight, be sure to stay for the exquisite final piece, sung at the front, which offers an intimate photo opportunity with these young artists.
For the best experience, plan ahead and reserve front row balcony seats to enjoy the unparalleled view and sound. Although crowded seating can feel a bit uncomfortable, the beauty of the performance more than compensates. A visit to a nearby Starbucks post-service offers a pleasant end to your visit, where you can savor a warm coffee while reflecting on the magical experience. Make sure to browse the CDs available for purchase to take a piece of this enchanting moment home.

Die Wiener Hofburgkapelle ist die älteste und Hauptkapelle der Hofburg sowie ehemalige Hauskapelle der Habsburger. Es ist auf jeden Fall einen Besuch Wert. Keine Eintrittsgebühren.

9:15から始まる日曜ミサにおいて、ウィーン少年合唱団、ウィーン国立歌劇場管弦楽団及び男子合唱団のメンバーは祭壇の背後の3階のフロア(日米式で言うと4階)で歌唱したり、演奏したりします。このフロアにはミサ参列者用の席はありません。ウィーン王宮礼拝堂合唱団は祭壇のあるグランドフロアで歌います。 6月末から9月中旬までは休演になります。 席の価格はフロア毎に違うのではなく、祭壇の見えない奥の席から見えやすい席の順に高くなります。前述の通り、ウィーン少年合唱団は祭壇の背後の3階で歌いますので、一番良く見える席は2階前列のごく僅かな席のみです。ただウィーン少年合唱団だけは、ミサの終わりにグランドフロアに降りて祭壇の前で1曲歌ってくれます。 尚、教会の中は非常に入り組んでいますが、教会のスタッフが非常に丁寧に座席まで案内してくれます。

Ein Touristen-Hotspot und ein Muss für jeden Wien-Besucher.
