Halms OPERN Feature - 400 Jahre Operngeschichte

Inspiring and with a wink,  Gregor F. Waltl guides us through the program in the tradition of the legendary Marcel Prawy, presenting the opera in a completely different way.
A special highlight is the appearance of Kammersänger Wolfgang Bankl (Vienna State Opera), who not only captivates with his impressive voice but also with exciting insights and stories from the world of opera.
The musical program spans a wide range – from the baroque sounds of Monteverdi and Cesti to the classics and romantic period with Gluck, Mozart, and Anton Halm, all the way to Werner Pirchner, whose works set new accents. A particular highlight: the world premiere of selected parts from Halm's opera “Marvorio”, a work that is finally conquering the stage.
After Gluck's “Orpheus” in 2023, the Anton Halm ChOrchester once again dedicates itself to the fascinating genre of opera with this event.
Who was Anton Halm?
Anton Halm (1789–1862), born in Wies, was not only a respected composer and piano educator but also a contemporary of Beethoven. His life and work are at the center of research conducted by the Anton Halm Society Wies. This society has been committed for years to keeping the versatile musician from Styria in memory – also through the work of the choir and orchestra known as Anton Halm ChOrchester, which repeatedly brings Halm's legacy to life in impressive ways.
