Akademie der Wissenschaften
The former assembly hall of the University of Vienna - now the ballroom of the Austrian Academy of Sciences - was one of the most important concert halls in Vienna around 1800. Beethoven himself conducted Wellington's Victory here in 1813. Many famous musicians played in the orchestra, including Louis Spohr, Johann Nepomuk Hummel, Giacomo Meyerbeer and Antonio Salieri. The work was composed to celebrate the decisive victory over Napoleon and its skilful use of the room's acoustics required the participation of all the musical celebrities available.
