How do we change perspectives when things and people become strangers to us? The performance OUBLIEZ - WHO(N) WE FORGET focuses on the 'in-between spaces' where communication takes place - between those affected, care staff and relatives - and tries to capture what happens to people who "disappear without being lost".
#FaceYourMozart is intended as a stimulus to actively engage with Mozart's music, to hear sensations and human interaction from the music, and to translate these into pantomime or scenic action with the help of a Mozart silhouette (as a tool) derived from the logo of the Mozarteum Orchestra.

The spatial installation ALLEGRIA is an interdisciplinary, interpretative research on Mozart's Symphony No. 17 in G major (KV 129).
Reactive Mozart is an interactive installation for 2 players. In 2 rooms with 360° sound and visuals, one person at a time can interact with the music and the other person via motion tracking. By collecting virtual objects, movement in the room and gesture control, different acoustic room situations are created, which enable a differentiated listening to the piece. The room acoustically and visually represents the piano, while the players can control the violin and cello.
How much time do we give life in life? Pelican or raven? How much role modeling can we tolerate? Where do we put our anger? Do you wash your hands often enough? And do you like to eat bread?

Under the theme "Sharing", this new event format will enable encounters and networking between all pedagogical fields of study at the Mozarteum University.
