The Southern Tyrol was in earlier times part of the Hapsburg Empire. Governed from Vienna and ceded to Italy in 1919. The region largely German speaking and enjoys a certain degree of autonomy. Of particular interests are the rock formations of the Dolomites and many castles and fortified houses of the province. Music of the tour is by Mozart. The music which is heard here is the Post horn Serenade and Notturno, another serenade.
The tour starts at the great Augustinian foundation, Kloster Neustift (Novacella), at Brixen (Bressanone) in Southern Tyrol, with it's rococo church interior and collection of late medieval paintings.
A tour of Salzburg, Vienna, Gmunden, Waldvirtel and Drosenberg set to three Serenades by Mozart including Eine kleine Nachtmusik.
