ABOUT THE EVENT

Adam Fischer conducts the Mozarteum Orchester Salzburg in a concert with violonist Benjamin Schmid at the Salzburg Festival.

Since its founding in 1920, the Salzburg Festival has established itself as the most important festival for opera, drama and concerts. The Salzburg Festival presents performances of opera, theatre and concerts of the highest artistic standards over a period of five to six weeks each summer. Conductors, stage-directors, orchestras, singers, actors and virtuoso instrumentalists of world renown can be seen and heard in July and August in the town on the river Salzach.

Even the most eminent opera stars come together here to rehearse productions intensively for several weeks, thereby fulfilling the creed of the Salzburg Festival as it was originally envisioned by Hugo von Hofmannsthal, one of the Festival’s founding fathers: “Dramatic play-acting in the strongest sense is our intention; routine, run-of-the-mill performances have no place here.”

Artists of Schmid, Fischer & Mozarteum Orchester Salzburg: Salzburg Festival

Mozarteum Orchester Salzburg

, Orchestra

Schmid, Benjamin

, Soloist
Born in Vienna in 1968, Benjamin Schmid studied in Salzburg, Vienna and at the Curtis Institute in Philadelphia. Between 1985 and 1992 Benjamin won a number of international awards, amongst the Carl Flesch Competition where he won the Mozart Prize, the Beethoven Prize and the Audience Prize!

Benjamin Schmid’s repertoire is extremely broad. As well as regularly performing all the major works for violin and orchestra, works by Austrian composers – Berg, Goldmark, Hartman, Korngold, Kreisler, Mozart, Muthspiel, Schönberg, Webern – are at its very core. Each year Schmid allocates a proportion of his time to playing chamber music. With pianist Ariane Haering he concentrates on the works by Mozart which the duo has started to record. Schmid’s passion for jazz, which began at very early age, is also reflected throughout his schedule.
