Inhalt
Mozart zum Verwöhnen
Als erste Oboistin an der Wiener Volksoper kennt Katharina Kratochwil nicht nur alle Geheimnisse der Wiener Oboe, sondern auch ihren Mozart in- und auswendig. Das Oboenkonzert ist für die junge Virtuosin aus Tulln ein Fest – so wie die Sinfonie KV 319 für das Orchester Recreation. Der Linzer Tobias Wögerer schlägt den Bogen von Mozart zurück zu dessen großem Vorbild, dem Londoner Bach-Sohn Johann Christian.
The former student at the MUK in Vienna has been demonstrating her skills as principal oboist in the Vienna Volksoper Orchestra since 2023. Born in Lower Austria in 1998, she honed her virtuoso skills as an Academy student with the Vienna Philharmonic and has performed with the Tonkünstler Orchestra of Lower Austria.
Recreation is special in many ways: consisting of musicians whose nationalities range from Japan to Venezuela, most of the members received part of their training in Graz. After its formation in 2002, the collective has played in unique halls such as the Alte Oper Frankfurt and has worked with outstanding conductors.
The Magic Flute at the Vienna State Opera ignited the musical spark in the then 12-year-old from Linz. 20 years later, Tobias Wögerer conducted Mozart's masterpiece at the Volksoper in his first season as Conductor in Residence. Numerous invitations to renowned orchestras were followed by the multiple Prima la Musica prizewinner's debut at the Salzburg Festival in 2023.
