Numerous opportunities to gain stage experience in the immediate vicinity of the Salzburg Festival round out the program.

About

Singing lessons already played an important role when the Mozarteum was founded in 1841 - this has not changed until today. The professional practice for singers has changed considerably: In addition to excellent vocal and musical qualities, high expectations are also placed on performing skills. The study program prepares students for the many realities of life as a singer.

In addition, vocal pedagogy offers a practice-oriented, artistic, pedagogical and scientific education in a variety of studies, which in its interdisciplinarity and diversity represents a contemporary preparation for a variety of future professional fields in a changing professional world.

    More than 330 years after the premiere of the only complete opera by Henry Purcell, the French composer Henry Fourès composes a setting for Dido and Aeneas and calls it "Elissa". A second name for the queen that allows the character to exist on its own, without direct ties to Aeneas.
