Right in the heart of Vienna, just a few steps away from St. Stephen's Cathedral, Mozarthaus Vienna opens a window into the years in which Wolfgang Amadé Mozart shaped the city - and the city shaped him. Domgasse 5 is home to his only surviving Viennese apartment, where the composer lived from 1784 to 1787 and created some of his most important works. No other place is so close to his creative everyday life.
In addition to the historic apartment, visitors can experience a multimedia presentation of Mozart's years in Vienna, his environment and his music. A special highlight is the historic baroque vault on the second basement floor: restored with great architectural flair in a perfect symbiosis of old and new, it now serves as an extraordinary event space. Thanks to its excellent acoustics, it is regularly used for chamber music concerts - a place where Mozart's spirit still resonates today. Here are the next events!

EXPERIENCING WAR - Trauma and its consequences
What consequences can war trauma have for children and society?
How can we as artists contribute to overcoming them?
The participants of the Balthasar NOVA academy program want to get to the bottom of these two key questions together with the audience and Dr. Barbara Preitler, psychologist and psychotherapist at the HEMAYAT care center for torture and war survivors.
Framed by excerpts from Erwin Schulhoff's string sextet and Richard Strauss' "Metamorphoses" in an arrangement for string septet, there will be space for an exchange about art as a resonance space in the process of processing and overcoming trauma.
