Music in Vienna 

The National Curriculum describes music as a powerful, unique form of communication that can transform the way pupils feel, think and act. Music benefits every aspect of development. All pupils, from 5-14, have a statutory entitlement to music education in class and many choose music for their Key Stage 4 GCSE. Our course is designed to promote the appreciation
of music and assist classroom teaching, focusing in particular on classical music.

Please note that our course itineraries are a suggestion only and can be modified to suit individual needs. All prices are based on 35 pupils and may vary if alternative accommodation is used. Air prices are for guidance only and may be subject to change depending on availability of flights at the time of booking.
