The publication "Auf dem Weg zur Kunstuniversität: das Kunsthochschul-Organisationsgesetz von 1970" ("On the Way to the Art University: the Art University Organization Act of 1970"), which appeared in August, documents for the first time comprehensively the historical course of the development of higher education in Austria's art universities.

Under the title Narrated History, in-depth interviews have been conducted since 2012 with former and current faculty and staff members of the Mozarteum University. The interest is focused on the personal memories of the interviewees about the Mozarteum, colleagues, events, special events as well as everyday life.

Every year around 9 June, the Art ARCHIVE Room presents archive treasures from its holdings and collections on varying themes. Visitors can admire the original documents, manuscripts, photos and other materials. Depending on the theme, there will also be lectures and musical contributions. 9 June is International Archives Day, which numerous institutions use to display their valuable archival materials. In Salzburg, the International Archives Day is celebrated in cooperation with several Salzburg archives under the lead of the Knowledge City Salzburg.

"The Mozarteum in distress", "Help us - a cry of distress from the Mozarteum" - headlines like these characterized Salzburg's press coverage in the spring of 1921. After four years of war, during which it had been possible to maintain the teaching activities of the young conservatory, the Mozarteum was on the brink of extinction.

The Platform on Politics of the Past at the Mozarteum University Salzburg deals with cultures of remembrance from the 1920s to the 1990s. The critical reflection on the university's political past, especially during the periods of Austrofascism, National Socialism and the post-war era, plays just as important a role as art projects against forgetting and for greater awareness. Researchers are currently conducing a citizen research project that invites the local community to share relevant documents and contemporary accounts.

With various ensembles, choirs and orchestras, the Mozarteum University offers a wide range of opportunities for students to gain valuable practical experience, to participate in large projects inside and outside the university and to work with renowned performers and conductors already during their studies.
