The collection focus of the Kunst-ARCHIV-Raum is on the events of the Mozarteum University. In this context, event programs, photos, press reports, posters, folders and other documents on events are primarily collected. Since August 2015, the holdings of the Kunst-ARCHIV-Raum have been successively entered into a digital archive information system. Thus, a comfortable search according to a wide variety of criteria is possible. An alumni database allows former students to be searched by name, subject, teacher or graduation year.
Für einen Dokumentationsfilm wurde einer der Schätze des Universitätsarchivs gezeigt: Der Film Sound of Music rund um die Geschichte der Trapp-Familie zählt zu den erfolgreichsten Filmen aller Zeiten. Nicht so bekannt ist die Tatsache, dass fünf der zehn Kinder der Familie an der Universität Mozarteum Salzburg - damals staatliches Konservatorium - studiert haben.
Agathe, Maria, Werner, Johanna und Martina erhielten von 1930 bis 1932 Unterricht in den Fächern Klavier, Violine, Laute, Cello, Waldhorn und Chorgesang. Sie waren damals zwischen 9 und 17 Jahre alt. Und auch Maria Kutschera, Georg von Trapps zweite Ehefrau (im Film von Julie Andrews verkörpert) studierte 1924/25 ein Semester Laute.
Unlängst war ein BBC Filmteam im Kunst-ARCHIV-Raum der Universität Mozarteum und filmte die originalen Studienblätter der Trapp Familie für eine Dokumentation über die Kanneh-Mason Familie, die in Großbritannien den Prototyp einer mit Musik erfolgreichen Familie darstellt.
Archivleiterin Susanne Prucher erzählte anhand der Studienblätter verschiedene interessante Details, wie die Fächer, die Lehrer und auch die Noten in Fleiß, Leistung und Betragen der einzelnen Trapp-Kinder.
Saving our digital cultural heritage
The experts of the Art ARCHIVE Room of the Mozarteum University dealt intensively with the necessities and possibilities of digital archiving at a conference in Graz. This does not begin in the archive, but is based on well-coordinated workflows within an institution (records management).
Accordingly, "Records Management and Digital Archiving - Designing Spaces for Digital Transformation" was the theme of the spring conference of the specialist group of archivists at universities and scientific institutions of the Austrian archives association VÖA, which took place in Graz from 10 to 12 May.
The Kunst-ARCHIV room was able to contribute very well to the discussions on document management systems, file plans, e-mail archiving and digital long-term archiving and also received valuable impulses for future projects.
This year's conference was also marked by international exchange. Experts from England, Germany and Switzerland spoke and discussed with those from Austrian universities, the Austrian State Archives and the International Atomic Energy Agency. Keynote speakers Gianni Penzo Doria from the University of Insubria in Varese and Adrian Brown, Director of the Parliamentary Archives London, reported on their successful digital archiving projects.
Personal memories of an institution
Under the title "Universität Mozarteum - Erzählte Geschichte" (Mozarteum University - Narrated History), in-depth audio interviews have been conducted with former and current members of the university since 2012. The interest is in the interviewees' personal memories of the Mozarteum, of colleagues, of events, of special events as well as of everyday life, the building situation and more. With this oral history project, the Kunst-ARCHIV-Raum strives to create a body of testimony that provides insight into the living history of the Mozarteum.
The goal is to collect memories, impressions and experiences, and to use personal narratives as sources for the history of the Mozarteum University Salzburg.
All interviews conducted as part of the project Universität Mozarteum - Erzählte Geschichte (Mozarteum University - Narrated History) are archived in the Kunst-ARCHIV-Raum of the Mozarteum University. There, the recordings can be used by researchers as well as an interested public. The interviews are also archived by our cooperation partner MenschenLeben in the Austrian Media Library Vienna.
We would be pleased if you would make yourself available for an interview as part of the project Universität Mozarteum - Erzählte Geschichte! An informal contact meeting will be followed by an interview conducted by a member of our trained team. In the course of this, there is the opportunity to discuss your own memorabilia (photos, etc.).

Der Arbeitsschwerpunkt Salzburger Musikgeschichte hat sich im Rahmen eines mehrsemestrigen Projektes zum Ziel gesetzt, Kurzprofile zu bedeutenden Persönlichkeiten des 19., 20. und 21. Jahrhunderts aus den verschiedensten Bereichen der Salzburger Musikkultur zu erstellen.

Sind die Wünsche an das Mozarteum damals wie heute gleichgeblieben? Der Kunst-ARCHIV-Raum zeigt in einer Bildergalerie ein Projekt des Departments für Bildende Künste & Gestaltung aus dem Jahr 2006: im Oktober 2006 wurde das neue Hauptgebäude der Universität Mozarteum am Mirabellplatz 1 nach umfangreicher Generalsanierung mit einem Tag der offenen Tür eröffnet, zu dem 17.000 Salzburger*innen und internationale Gäste kamen.
Die damalige Abteilung für Bildende Künste, Kunst- und Werkpädagogik bat die Gäste, ihre Wünsche an das Mozarteum auf ein Blatt Papier zu schreiben und sich damit fotografieren zu lassen.
