Vienna’s coffee-houses were not only famous for its desserts and delicious coffee but also as a place were artists of all stripes gathered and busily exchanged ideas.

Our program aims to recreate this unique environment of a by-gone era by presenting music by some of the foremost Viennese composers of the day, interspersed by readings from correspondence by Gustav Klimt, Alma Mahler, Schoenberg, Egon Schiele and Alexander Zemlinsky, among others.

There will of course be a reception of Viennese coffee and pastries as well!
