I really love this interview, Billy Joel's reflections about Vienna touched my heart.
He nailed what I love about this city (and he also sings his beautiful "Vienna waits for you" song):
-> Billy Joel, Why Vienna?
-> Gustav Klimt's "The Kiss" at the Upper Belvedere
-> History of Demel Pâtisserie Café, Kohlmarkt 14
-> Original trailer of Carol Reed's 1949 film, with Orson Welles, The Third Man

    Been good to catch glimpses of Wien, in the Eurovision selection - rounds, but to see the city properly, with a refined eye, and in a timeless way : come to Merisi.
    No strobe lights, and noise, just relaxing.
    Love these posts.

    Thanks for the link to Billy Joel. Matches your photograph in a way and the link to "THE THIRD MAN". One of my all time favorites.

      You are welcome, and thank you!
      Have you ever watched the movie in the Burgkino?

    The soft tones you share almost daily are gorgeous. Vienna has got to be a must place to visit.
