The audience of the innovative concert series MITTEN IM ORCHESTER rejoiced at an extraordinary interpretation of Mozart's 20th Piano Concerto in D minor and Beethoven's magnificent 7th Symphony. The new subscription cycle of the Philharmonie Salzburg and Elisabeth Fuchs will take place in a new venue in the city of Salzburg from the coming season.

On Wednesday evening, the concert audience in the Mozarteum Great Hall was treated to two highlights: firstly, Mozart's Piano Concerto in D minor, which improvisational wonder Galina Vracheva garnished with playful jazz cadenzas. Secondly, Beethoven's magnificent 7th Symphony swept through the almost sold-out concert hall - and led to real storms of enthusiasm.

On Thursday, 22 February, the Philharmonie Salzburg under chief conductor Elisabeth Fuchs performed the late Romantic program that had already been acclaimed the previous Wednesday in the Mozarteum Great Hall at the Center for Visions, proving to be not only bold in terms of its program, but also in terms of its setting.

In the Mozarteum Great Hall on Wednesday evening, the Philharmonie Salzburg under chief conductor Elisabeth Fuchs performed two highly emotional orchestral works in a late Romantic setting: Sergei Rachmaninov's "Symphonic Dances" and Alexander von Zemlinsky's orchestral fantasy "The Mermaid".

What does it sound like when mice and pirates play Astor Piazzolla, Camille Saint-Saëns and W.A. Mozart? If they have rehearsed as diligently as the dedicated young talents of the Salzburg Children's & Youth Philharmonic Orchestra, really well!

The city senate and municipal council have decided to purchase the prospective rehearsal building for the Salzburg Philharmonic Orchestra in Salzburg's Nonntal.
