ORA Early Music Festival

ORA celebrated its premiere in 2024 on Johann Sebastian Bach's birthday, and what better way to celebrate him than making him the star of the show. The opening day in the Great Hall of the Mozarteum Foundation combined music by the great master with contemporary compositions based on his works. The second concert of the evening was also a novelty: for the first time, the Mozarteum University Symphonic Wind Band, the Department of Early Music and the Institute of New Music will collaborate to stage a concert together under the direction of Andreas Hofmeir, which will also be dedicated entirely to Johann Sebastian Bach.
