The room

Sala Terrena
Deutschordenshaus, Singerstraße 7, 1010 Wien
The house of the Teutonic Order behind St Stephen’s, built out from the twelfth century onwards. Mozart lodged here in the Archbishop of Salzburg’s retinue from March 1781 and played in its ground-floor hall on the day he arrived; the Order still owns the house and its church.
Vienna’s oldest concert hall: a small vaulted ground-floor room frescoed in the Venetian late-Renaissance manner, about forty-five chairs in six rows around the players. There are no numbered seats: the categories are bands of rows.

Who plays
One ensemble, two line-ups
The violinist Claudio Bentes founded his first string quartet at twelve, studied in Rio de Janeiro, Graz, Klagenfurt and Vienna, and began this concert series in the Sala Terrena in 1998. He has been its artistic director ever since; in the Mozart Year 2006 he played the first Mozart ever heard in the interval of the North American broadcast of the Vienna New Year’s Concert. The ensemble’s players have performed with the Chamber Orchestra of Europe, the Vienna Chamber Orchestra and the Salzburg Soloists, and appear in several documentary films about Mozart shot in this room.
The Mozart Ensemble Vienna plays here in two shapes. On Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday it is a string quartet — two violins, viola and cello — in period coats. On Tuesday and Thursday it is a piano trio, violin, piano and cello, and the evening opens out to solo pieces. Ninety minutes either way, in a room that holds forty-five chairs.

Know before you book
- The house seats you inside the category you choose; we ask for your party to be seated together. Category A is rows 1 to 3, Category B rows 4 to 6.
- Ninety minutes. A string quartet on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday; a piano trio on Tuesday and Thursday — the house sets the programme and may change it on the night.
- One room: the Sala Terrena of the Deutschordenshaus at Singerstraße 7, two minutes from Stephansdom. Most nights begin at 8 p.m. and Saturdays at 6 p.m.; each date prints its own start time.
- Forty-five chairs in a painted vaulted room — this is chamber music at close quarters, not a concert hall. The hall is air-conditioned.
- Five steps at the entrance: light wheelchairs can be carried in with help, heavy ones cannot be accommodated. Ask us before you book and we will confirm with the house.
- Your QR e-ticket and wallet pass are issued the moment you pay.
Questions guests ask
What is included in the price?
Everything. The price shown is the price charged: our booking fee is €0.00 and we print it on your order at €0.00 rather than leaving it out.
When is my ticket issued?
At checkout. Your QR code, wallet pass and PDF exist the moment your card is charged.
Why can I not pick a seat?
The house sells no numbered seats and publishes no plan. You book a category — rows 1 to 3, or rows 4 to 6 — and the house seats you inside it.
Is this the Mozarthaus museum in the Domgasse?
No. The concert is in the Sala Terrena of the Deutschordenshaus at Singerstraße 7, the house Mozart lodged in in 1781. The museum is a different address and a different visit.
Which ensemble plays on my night?
A string quartet on Wednesday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday; a piano trio on Tuesday and Thursday. The house sets each evening’s programme itself and may change it.
How long is the concert?
About ninety minutes. Doors are shortly before the start.
How should I dress?
As you like. There is no dress code, and the hall is air-conditioned.
Can I bring a child?
Yes, and a child sits beside the adult who brings them. Tell us the ages when you book and we will pass them to the house.
Can I change the date?
Yes, free, until 48 hours before, for the same category, up to twice. If the new date costs more you pay the difference; if it costs less, your original price stands.
Until when can I cancel?
Fourteen days from purchase, and never inside 48 hours of the concert — whichever comes first. The exact date is printed on your order line.
Will my party sit together?
We always book your party on one order and ask the house to seat you together inside your category. If they seat you apart, tell us and we will put it right.
What if you cannot supply it?
You are refunded in full and immediately, whatever the date, and told that we could not supply it. There is no voucher and no substitute you did not choose.
