Strauss Capelle Vienna

The Strauss Capelle Vienna is an orchestra looking back on almost 200 years of history. The tradition of its founder, Johann Strauss I, is continued by the current orchestra, performing in original historical costumes, playing Strauss’ music on tour to the highest standard and delighting audiences around the globe.

Today, the Strauss Capelle Vienna musicians preserve their position as “Musical Ambassadors of Austria”, with a mission to proudly represent the city’s rich cultural heritage and emphasize its crucial role as the world’s capital of classical music. 

Since 1977, the Strauss Capelle Vienna has performed over 3,000 concerts worldwide, never failing to create memorable experiences for its treasured international audiences. Performing in their trademark red historical uniforms the orchestra’s mission is to uphold the rich musical tradition of the Viennese Waltz, created by Vienna’s own Strauss Dynasty.
