Ein Fest für Kaiser Friedrich III. in seiner Burg

Mystery-Thriller fänden in der Grazer Burg reichen Stoff, wenn es um Kaiser Friedrich III. geht. Schon das Motto des geheimnisvollen Habsburgers wirkt wie ein Code, der erst entschlüsselt sein will: A.E.I.O.U. In einem prallen Musikfest setzt die Styriarte dem oft unterschätzten Vater Kaiser Maximilians ein klingendes Denkmal. Cinquecento singt Kirchenmusik vom Kaiserhof und aus dem Florenz der Medici. Im Burggarten geht es bei weltlicher Musik heiterer zu.

Ensemble Oni Wytars

Ensemble

Shimmering, dancing and unbelievably lively, the cultures grow together when this excellent ensemble, formed around Marco Ambrosini, Katharina Dustmann, Peter Rabanser, Michael Posch and Riccardo Delfino, celebrates the sounds of the Mediterranean. The elaborate celebrates a marriage with the popular, just as the Orient celebrates a marriage with the Occident.

Cinque­cento

Vocal ensemble

Founded in Vienna, the ensemble consists of five professional singers from Austria, Belgium, Germany, England and Switzerland, and is one of the leading vocal groups in Europe. Cinquecentoʼs main focus is on the music of the imperial courts of Austria in the 16th century.
