Four Past Four: To Vienna! To Vienna!
With works by Mozart, Haydn, Eötvös, Webern, Kreisler, Schönberg, Mahler (Alma), Kerer, Lang, Falco ...

Salzburg and Vienna, the classical classics by Mozart, Haydn and Beethoven – the appearance of a perfectly constructed soundscape, re-discovered and pepped up by the eight talented young members of the Quartet Academy. But the opening of a festival in Hitzacker dedicated to the "enfant terrible" Mozart would not be complete without today's sassy antitheses. The Weirduo jumps in with vocal art right up to pop and avantgarde, and the actor Ulrich Noethen sets quotation marks around "beautiful Vienna" with texts by Thomas Bernhard.

If anyone is at home on the wings of song, it's Anna Lucia Richter, the mezzo soprano from Cologne, Germany. Home base in this concert is the ultimate vocal composer, "our Mozart". From there, the Salzburg Festival's star Zerline in "Don Giovanni" glides through the centuries with her enchanting voice. She has just released a CD of Brahms' Lieder with her piano partner, the Israeli Schubert Award winner Ammiel Buchakevitz.
