About the HERBSTGOLD - Festival in Eisenstadt
HERBSTGOLD is the name of the new autumn festival at Esterházy Palace, which combines classical, jazz and Balkan-Romani music with culinary treats and the traditions of this historic place.
At the heart of HERBSTGOLD is the relationship between tradition and progress, the ties that link successive generations of composers, but also the ways in which European classical music has been enriched by folk music from the Balkans and, since the Turkish wars, music of the Orient.
The historical orangery in the Palace park provides an atmospheric setting for culinary discoveries at Pan O´Gusto, the festival for Pannonian delicacies. Traditional and modern dishes are presented in the show kitchen, and many guests enjoy the garden’s relaxed atmosphere.
Esterházy Palace is the foremost cultural monument in Burgenland. The sumptuous rooms with their festive interior architecture and decorations bring the past aura of the princes and the splendour of their court back to life. And the palace is still the hub of the cultural scene today, the sumptuous backdrop for festivities and social occasions. With the takeover after forty years on 1 January 2010, the palace in Eisenstadt has once more become the central cultural and event venue of the Esterházy Private Foundation, offering guests from all over the world a wide-ranging programme of events and cultural exchange.
