Company description and purpose of company Verein Camerata Academica des Mozarteums Salzburg

The Camerata Salzburg makes music "full of revolutionary energy and utopian potential, uncompromisingly individual, bold and modern - and yet classically stringent", as the Salzburger Nachrichten said on the occasion of a concert marking the orchestra's 60th anniversary. In the more than six decades of its existence, the Camerata's musical style has been shaped by continuous collaboration with musical personalities such as Bernhard Paumgartner, Géza Anda, Sándor Végh, Sir Roger Norrington and András Schiff. Important musicians such as Clara Haskil, Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau, Heinz Holliger, Aurèle Nicolet, Wolfgang Schneiderhan, Christoph Eschenbach, Philippe Herreweghe, René Jacobs, Franz Welser-Möst and Peter Ruzicka have given concerts with the chamber orchestra, whose line-up ranges from choral string quartets to more romantic ones Symphonic and modern works are enough. As a concert and opera orchestra in Mozart's hometown, the orchestra is one of the main ensembles of the Salzburg Festival and Salzburg Mozart Week and has its own subscription cycle in its home, the Mozarteum. The orchestra regularly gives concerts in music centers such as the Wiener Konzerthaus, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden, the Bregenz Festival Hall, the Carinthian Summer, the Haydn Festival in Eisenstadt, in Munich, London, Florence, Moscow, St. Petersburg, Beijing, Tokyo and the festival cities of Aix-en-Provence and Lucerne. Concert tours have taken the orchestra to all parts of the world. More than 60 records and CD recordings, many of which have been awarded significant prizes, document the music-making culture of the Camerata Salzburg over six decades. The two complete recordings of Mozart's piano concertos with the Hungarian pianists Géza Anda and András Schiff as well as the complete recording of Mozart's serenades and divertimenti under the direction of Sándor Végh are milestones in record history. Great Hall of the Mozarteum Foundation Outstanding soloists such as Anne-Sophie Mutter, Hilary Hahn, Patricia Kopatschinskaja, Julian Rachlin, Daniel Hope, Benjamin Schmid, Joshua Bell, Thomas Zehetmair, Augustin Dumay, Veronika Hagen, Mitsuko Ushida, Elisabeth Leonskaja, Claire- Marie Le Guay, Yu Kosuge, Oleg Maisenberg, Murray Perahia, Olli Mustonen, Alexander Lonquich, Till Fellner, Fazil Say, Stefan Vladar, Heinrich Schiff, Patrick Demenga and François Leleux as well as singers like Genia Kühmeier, Vesselina Kasarova, Christiane Oelze and Elina Garanca are among the guests on the Camerata podium. The former concertmasters Gérard Korsten and Alexander Janiczek keep returning to the orchestra as conductors of concerts. Founded in 1952 with teachers and students from the Salzburg Mozarteum, the Camerata with Mozart matinees soon became a centerpiece of the Salzburg Festival. The ensemble was brought into being by the co-founder and later President of the Festival, Bernhard Paumgartner. For the conductor, educator and musicologist, the Camerata was about preserving and at the same time reviving a classical and classical musical spirit. The name - originally Camerata Academica of the Salzburg Mozarteum - was chosen as a reference to the historical Camerata Fiorentina of the Renaissance. Even under the aegis of Bernhard Paumgartner, the main direction of the ensemble was what is still an organizational and artistic maxim today: making music independently with a sense of community. In the Camerata Salzburg, the form of the chamber orchestra acquired an exemplary tradition. The musicians make music with conductors, but also led by soloists or concert masters, as well as in smaller chamber music ensembles. From the beginning, the focus of the repertoire was naturally on the work of the genius loci Mozart and the music of Haydn, Beethoven and Schubert. As part of the Mozart matinees at the Salzburg Festival, the Camerata performed countless symphonic and concert works by Mozart over the decades, thus creating a typical “Salzburg Mozart sound” that received fresh impulses again and again. Since 1956, when the first Mozart Week took place in Salzburg, the Camerata has focused on its core repertoire of Viennese classical music at this renowned festival as well. Already in the first week of Mozart there was participation as an opera orchestra. The further development of the orchestra after the Paumgartner era was initially carried out by Antonio Janigro, under whose artistic direction the orchestra's first subscription cycle was launched from 1974. Sándor Végh, who took over the artistic direction of the orchestra in 1978 and, parallel to his work as a teacher at the Salzburg Mozarteum, included outstanding young musicians in the orchestra, played the violin soloist with the Camerata. Sándor Végh realized a music-making ideal of the string quartet on a larger scale and promoted the individual design of the individual orchestra members within and for the benefit of the collective. Végh had chamber music works played in choral ensembles and at the same time expanded the chamber orchestral repertoire to include music of the Romantic period (including Mendelssohn Bartholdy, Brahms, Dvor? Ák, Tchaikovsky) and classical modernism (Bartók, Stravinsky, Schönberg). With the “Encounter”, the Camerata also launched its own festival and from 1987 received a cycle in the Wiener Konzerthaus. From 1993 the Camerata returned to the Salzburg Festival as an opera orchestra (“Lucio Silla”, “La clemenza di Tito”, “Le nozze di Figaro”, “The Rake's Progress”, etc.). During the Mozart Weeks production of Mozart's “Mitridate, Re di Ponto” in 1997, a successor to the late Sándor Végh was found in Sir Roger Norrington. From 1998 to 2006, Sir Roger, as chief conductor, combined the characteristic ensemble style of the Camerata with his experience in historically informed music-making. The Salzburg Festival dedicated their own concert cycle to the Camerata and Norrington. In 2007 Norrington's deputy, the violinist Leonidas Kavakos, took over the artistic direction for three years. In 2011 Louis Langrée was appointed chief conductor, in whose musical style and repertoire the Camerata finds a great deal of agreement and just as many inspiring accents. Even in the seventh decade of its existence, the Camerata Salzburg has retained a “joy in playing that is contagious” (Neue Zürcher Zeitung).
