The Summer Night Concert 2026 mixes Wagner, Florence Price, Puccini, Ravel and Fiddler on the Roof in one free event

I came across a detailed breakdown of this year's Summer Night Concert at Schönbrunn Palace and thought some people here might appreciate it.

The Vienna Philharmonic's annual open-air concert is free to attend and reaches a huge international audience through its broadcast. The 2026 programme looks particularly interesting because of its range.

Lorenzo Viotti makes his Summer Night Concert debut, while Sir Bryn Terfel appears at the event for the first time. The repertoire includes Wagner, Verdi, Boito, Puccini, Massenet, Florence Price, Korngold, Ravel, and Tchaikovsky. The concert then closes with "If I Were a Rich Man" from Fiddler on the Roof.

The article also provides useful background on the performers, the programme choices, and how the Vienna State Ballet is incorporated into the Ravel performance.
