Another piece of normality returned and the Mozarteum University hosted another alumni and emeriti gathering on June 30. We met amidst the exhibition "Achtung International - Salzburg and 100 Years of the International Society for New Music" in the foyer of the Mozarteum University for a drink. Matthew Werley gave a guided tour of the exhibition afterwards and the evening ended with a visit to Claudio Monteverdi's opera "L'incoronazione di Poppea".

The focus is on openness and creativity in dealing with diverse forms of musical expression, research, the development of new media forms of mediation, as well as cooperation with cultural institutions in the Salzburg area and the promotion of international exchange.
