Each December, a festive spirit blankets central Europe. Elegant streets are adorned with holiday decorations and Christmas markets are filled with merry locals sipping hot spiced wine. To top it off, the symphony and opera seasons are at their peak and music becomes the centerpiece of the advent season. Join Earthbound Expeditions and Seattle’s very own King FM 98.1 December 4-14, 2010 and celebrate the genius of Mozart, Strauss, Beethoven and Dvorak. Hear the echoes of the monk’s Gregorian chants in the Monastery of Melk, dine in a one thousand year old monastery and stroll through a charming Bohemian village.
