Augarten

Concerts For The Very Youngest

This is how they are known and loved all over the world: 24 boys in sailor suits and their conductor demonstrate that music is the international language of emotions.

Friday Afternoon

The fairy queen Titania, spirits of the night, a singing poet, the peasant couple Mopsa and Corydon, journeymen craftsmen, and many more characters find themselves in the woods on a balmy summer night – chaos is inevitable. But what role does the cunning goblin Puck play in all this?

The Fairy Queen

Ode to Nature(Concept: Timotej Kosovinc) is more than a concert – it's a sensory journey and a deeply moving experience. At its heart is nature, our greatest source of inspiration. Yet modern life increasingly alienates us from it, especially in cities where genuine contact has become rare. But when nature becomes tangible again, we realize: it is our origin, full of beauty, power, and diversity. This concert celebrates nature with music and visuals – impressive, moving, and unforgettable.

Cultural Lunch

“I am a Frenchman from the East, a humanist, a rationalist with religion, a Catholic with a Jewish brain, a true revolutionary.” This is how Joseph Roth, the celebrated writer born in 1894 in Eastern Galicia, now Ukraine, characterized himself. Erwin Steinhauer and the Ukrainian accordionist Andrej Serkov conjure up Roth’s literary worlds together. First, with “The Model Pupil,” about an ambitious man who seems to succeed at everything, while laughter and love remain out of his reach. Then with the novella “The Emperor’s Bust,” in which Roth sends Count Morstin into exile through the crumbling monarchy, a situation into which he himself was forced in 1933.

The Showpient & The Empire's Bust

MUK/dances/juniors

This year's graduates of the Contemporary and Classical Dance program will present an evening of current, contemporary choreographies at the end of their dance studies at MUK.

Articulation

Only the original instrumentation – and not one of many arrangements. That was the strict requirement of the three musical adventurers, Daniel Ottensamer, Stephan Koncz, and Christoph Traxler. The result is a complete anthology for clarinet trio, from which three pieces were chosen for an exciting journey. It begins with the healing power of bel canto sounds. For after a breakdown in Italy, Vincenzo Bellini enthusiast Mikhail Glinka essentially healed himself with the composition of his Trio pathétique. John Ireland then takes us to Britain's coast, complete with a sea shanty, before we reach the summit with the trio titan Beethoven.

Theclarinet Trio Anthology

TheMartin ListabarthTrio presents inMuThhis new album “In Her FootstepsThe program was inspired by the Viennese world traveler Ida Pfeiffer, who circumnavigated the globe twice solo in the 19th century. Her captivating travelogues form the starting point for a musical exploration brimming with curiosity and a thirst for adventure. The music blends narrative jazz with influences from classical and pop. In sensitive, powerful, and sometimes even tongue-in-cheek compositions, Listabarth tells of early dreams, forbidden love, caravans through the desert, encounters with foreign cultures, and an unquenchable inner drive to discover the world. It's about more than just historical anecdotes: Ida Pfeiffer's life touches on universal themes such as departure, curiosity, disappointment, courage, and overcoming boundaries. Martin Listabarth transforms Ida Pfeiffer's life into a soundtrack for the here and now.

Martin Listabarthtrio

Childhood is a special topic in Japan: how children celebrate and play, what rights and, even more importantly, responsibilities they have, how their daily routine is structured, what rules apply at school, how instruments are taught, what rituals are observed in music lessons, and how music is notated – we explore all of this between the musical pieces. Japanese music cherishes the marimba: Keiko Abe composed "Reflections on Japanese Children's Songs II" for marimba duo. The marimba, as a modern instrument of the 20th century, blends beautifully in a duo with the bamboo flute, the shakuhachi. Marimba and shakuhachi perform a composition by their master, Hosan Yamamoto. Dieter Strehly spent a year in Japan studying the shakuhachi – a bamboo flute – while Gaby Zechmeister mastered the koto, a curved zither. The sound of the koto and shakuhachi together is enchanting, and we demonstrate how it is notated. In Japan, the koto is reverently called O-Koto, and the performance begins with a bow. The Austrian premiere of a duo by Japanese composer Dai Fujikura, "Kodama"—a hymn to tree spirits and ghosts—will be performed!

Tamagotchi And Animé

Operetta melodies by Johann Strauss, Emmerich Kálmán, and Franz Lehár are part of the New Favoriten Mandolin Orchestra's regular repertoire.

You can also look forward to vocal performances by our guests Katharina Jing An Gebauer and Alexander Mutafchiyski, a surprise, and the witty commentary by Victor Kautsch. Eduard Papazoff will conduct the concert.
