Why Lviv? Lviv is a royal city at the crossroads of Eastern and Western cultures with a rich history, mystical legends, a scent of coffee and chocolate. This is the ancient city of Lions where the spirit of the nineteenth century, the era of high society balls and classical music is in the air.

Why Mozart? Franz Xaver Mozart, a well-known teacher, pianist, conductor and composer, son of the famous musical genius Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart has been living, creating and loving in the capital of Galicia for over thirty years. The atmosphere of the ancient city inspired him to create magnificent symphonies, and this is where his first concerts took place.

In 1808-1838 Franz Xaver Mozart has been actively creating musical environment of the city: he founded Saint Cecilia Choral Society, which was, as a matter of fact, the first musical union of the city and the new European tradition of performing classical music. Lvivites can be proud that the figure of Franz Xaver contributed in the history of Lviv.
