Vienna Summer Camp

During the 18th to 20th centuries, Vienna was known as the musical capital of the world and home to the musical geniuses of Mozart, Beethoven, Haydn, and Brahms, just to name a few. Today it remains a city of strong musical heritage because of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra, the Vienna State Opera and the Music Conservatory. It has also been known for its outstanding cultural and educational institutions, which is evident in its numerous museums and art galleries. Vienna is a relaxed and safe city with sidewalk cafes and beautiful parks.
