Sons of Vienna

From the late eighteenth century to the early twentieth century Vienna was never without a world famous composer living and working within her friendly confines. It was here that composers from Haydn and Mozart to Beethoven and Brahms wrote the timeless melodies that became the foundation of classical music. Past masters, seven in all, are roused by charismatic young artists who play their music and tell their stories. Vienna's Golden Age is brought to life not with black tie and tails but with vibrant tales of a different sort.
