The Mozarteum Orchestra Salzburg has a long-standing tradition of appearances at the Salzburg Festival: as early as 1921, members of the Mozarteum Orchestra joined members of the Vienna State Opera orchestra in giving orchestral concerts. Since 1949 the orchestra has offered the Mozart Matinees initiated by Bernhard Paumgartner. In this special Festival summer, the Matinees will not take place at the Main Auditorium of the Mozarteum Foundation, but at the Haus für Mozart, and each will be performed only once. They will be conducted by Ivor Bolton, Andrew Manze, Ádám Fischer and Gianluca Capuano, who makes his debut with the Mozarteum Orchestra as part of the Mozart Matinees.
