The music Mozart composed while residing in Vienna is among his most popular of all time - as mainstream as it gets when it comes to classical. But even the most superior of music purists can't help but be awestruck all over again at hearing these compositions live, especially when they're played by some of the foremost Mozart experts out there. Swoon alongside them as Da Camera celebrates its opening night with Mozart in Vienna, featuring a performance of his String Quartet in C Major and Divertimento for String Trio in E-flat Major.
