CHAPEL & CONCERT HALL

 

The chapel and the adjacent music room are used together as a concert venue. The acoustics have been carefully optimized through specific architectural measures, creating ideal sound conditions for both liturgical celebrations and concerts alike.

Hofberg CONCERTS

 

Regular highlights are the house concerts held in the Chapel of St. Michael, featuring a variety of ensembles such as string quartets and Baroque groups. Organ concerts are also an integral part of the Hofberg.Art program.

 

As university professors in the fields of medicine and biomedical engineering, Daniela and Christian Baumgartner participate passionately in musical events as amateur musicians. As hosts, they also occasionally give small performances themselves during various concerts and church services.

 

Chamber concert, August 2019

 

The intimate setting of the concerts, held in an elegant and refined atmosphere, offers a memorable experience for everyone involved – whether performers or audience members.

 

This is the success story of Hofberg.Art – a journey shaped by passion, artistry, and a unique cultural vision.
