For the first time, Asia is welcoming Austria's famed House of Music to Haining's Yanguan Music Town International Tourist Resort. This marks a significant cultural exchange between the "City of Music" and an ancient Eastern city.
Located in the heart of Vienna, the House of Music is Austria's first museum dedicated to sound and music. It combines modern technology with musical heritage for an immersive, interactive experience.
The Haining branch offers more than a mere replica. It includes historical exhibits, music masters, interactive games, immersive experiences, and dining. This setup allows visitors to explore the magic of both historical and contemporary music.
Recreated rooms themed on seven giants of classical music, including Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, and more, are on display. Their manuscripts, photos, voice recordings, letters, and personal items offer an intimate look into their creative worlds.
Beyond static displays, visitors can also see, touch, and create music through activities like composing and virtual conducting.
The House of Music in Haining integrates local and international music cultures and faithfully reproduces Vienna's classic exhibitions while incorporating local elements, fostering a dynamic fusion of musical styles.
The House of Music aims to bridge the gap between local and global music cultures, infusing new life and inspiration into Haining's unique traditions.
