30 years of folk music studies and study programs at the University Mozarteum: Together with the Lucerne School of Music, teachers and students of the University Mozarteum go on a search for traces between yodel and yodel, tradition and new trends.

7 world premieres and all works composed by Mozart in 1791, the year of his death. This is the ambitious program that the newly founded Mozart Forum of the Mozarteum University has set itself for 2021, starting with a production of the opera "La clemenza di Tito," which will premiere on February 1 without an audience, but in a livestream.

News … Home News Four directing projects on the theme of realism Directing projects on the theme of realism 04.03.2022 Drama production © Fankofilm Since the establishment of theater as a bourgeois art form in the 19th century, numerous authors and theater makers have formulated the demand to penetrate social reality with the means of art and to bring it to view in its contradictions. In the winter semester 2021/22, directing students will work with classical and contemporary drama texts, which they will set in relation to the social and political reality of our present. The four productions were created in collaboration with students of the Department of Acting, Directing & Applied Theatre - Thomas Bernhard Institute and the  Department of Scenography. The four theater texts negotiate co-conflicts arising from the collision of the individual striving for freedom, happiness, and self-realization with the norms and limitations of the historical situation and the existing social order. The central themes of the works include the social inequality of gender relations, the discomfort generated by sexuality and its social standardization, the class differences that have not been overcome despite universal claims to equality, and the global crises generated by the capitalist way of life. © Fankofilm Casimir and Caroline or Youth without … by Ödön von Horváth Directed by Marion Hélène Weber  Stage and Costume Design: Carla Schwering With: Annalisa Hohl, Juliette Larat, Lukas Vogelsang, Benjamin Viziotis, Rachid Zinaladin " My generation is known to be very suspicious and imagines that it has no illusions .

Based on "Bernarda Alba's House," Federico García Lorca's drama that has been performed most frequently around the world to this day, the 4th year Drama and Directing class, under the direction of Anja Herden, will deal in "¡Los Bernarrrdá's!" with being trapped, hysteria, fear of life, and the longing for freedom as a primal human drive, and will tell of people who are both victims and accomplices of their own oppression.

At the Federal Competition of German-Speaking Acting Students 2022, held in Ludwigsburg from June 19 to 25, 2022, the 4th year acting class was able to bring an ensemble prize back to Salzburg for the production ¡Los Bernarrrdá's!.

No News. With Elfriede Jelinek's "Am Königsweg", the Thomas Bernhard Institute dealt with right-wing populism, the disastrous political practice of Donald Trump and the helplessness of a society that cannot find an answer to the explosive spread of contempt for democracy and violence. The production was a cooperation with Freeszfe Budapest, in German, Hungarian and English. Project management: Volker Lösch, Christoph Lepschy With acting & directing students from Budapest and Salzburg Directors: Antal Bálint, Bona Dyssou, Volker Lösch, Ádám Nyári, Henry Schlage  Assistant directors: Anna Szepes, Laura Trauner Dramaturgy: Christoph Lepschy Costumes: Amrei Monika Fürst, Sophia Marlen Esterer, Christina Winkler About the production Jelinek's textual surfaces oscillated between tragedy and the grotesque, pathos and vulgarity, and painted a picture of a political-financial-capitalist complex that is morally at its end, but nevertheless nevertheless comes to power with force and endangers fundamental democratic values. The participating students from Austria and Hungary complemented the play with personal texts and gave insight into different experiences and observations related to the dynamic developments of right-wing populism in Europe and the current political situation in Austria and Hungary. "When 19 angry young people roar and march jaggedly as a flag-waving mob, it leaves goosebumps.

No publication found. What are the sources of musical ability? Musical learning paths are rarely clear and goal-oriented. There are not only main ways of learning, but also byways, wrong turns, one-way streets and dead ends - or to use the metaphor of the source: there are countless springs, tributaries, forks, fords, lakes and estuaries. This anthology, conceived as a Festschrift for Reinhart von Gutzeit, explores the question of how musicians (amateurs and professionals) acquire their artistic skills. Was sind die entscheidenden Momente, Situationen und Stationen, die für ein erfolgreiches Lernen im Rahmen einer künstlerisch-musikalischen Ausbildung verantwortlich sind?  Welches sind die Menschen, die Musiker*innen dabei in besonderer Wei­se unterstützen und begleiten? Welche Rolle spielen etwa die verschiedenen Lehrenden­persönlichkeiten, die Eltern, Geschwister, Großeltern und Freund*innen? Welche besonderen Umstände und Situationen und welche glücklichen Zufälle müssen gegeben sein, damit musikalisches Lernen möglich ist? Die Autor*innen der Beiträge geben vielfältige Antworten. Neben der Rolle, die erste Lehrende spielen, werden weitere Quellen genannt, etwa das Elternhaus, besondere Stücke, schulischer Musikunterricht, Angebote an Hochschulen, kindliches Spiel, Elementare Musikpädagogik, Kreativität, Singen im Chor und vor allem das unmittelbar erlebte eigene Musizieren und künstlerische Tun.
