Schloss Thalheim Classic
The Schloss Thalheim Classic concert series presents chamber music in the High Baroque chapel designed by Jakob Prandtauer (1660–1726) and in the Grand Hall. The series connects historic performance venues with the repertoire of European chamber music.
The Chapel as Concert Venue
The High Baroque chapel, designed by Jakob Prandtauer — architect of Melk Abbey — is the primary venue of the Schloss Thalheim Classic series. The acoustics and spatial proportions of the chapel create the conditions for chamber music in its most concentrated form.
The chapel accommodates a limited number of listeners, enabling a concert situation that approaches the original performance context of chamber music.
