What the list says
Vienna has eleven of the thirty, Warsaw four, Prague four. The most-booked concert, the Four Seasons in the Karlskirche, is rated below the four Warsaw Chopin hours that together cost less than it. The dinner concerts are rated as well as the plain ones; the costume ones are not rated better. The best value on the page is Warsaw at €17 to €22, and the best single night is the Prague Mozart dinner at €110.
For Europeans
Warsaw, Prague and Vienna are an overnight train apart and the €15 to €38 tickets take bookings the same day except Saturdays. The Chopin hour is the thing to do on a Warsaw evening with nothing else booked.
For visitors from the US
Prices are in euros except New York; your card converts. Dates on posters are day first: 10/10 is October 10. A €22 Chopin hour or a €38 Four Seasons is less than a cinema ticket for two at home; the Prague dinner concert is a nice dinner at home with the concert free.
For visitors from East Asia
Mid-October is after Golden Week and the churches are not full on weeknights. Nothing on this page needs a language; the dinner concerts take dietary notes at booking. Tax-free forms apply to shops, not tickets.
