WHERE IT ALL BEGAN!

Philip Glass' opera as an online premiere

The opera premiere of Traces of the Lost marked the festive opening of the music theatre in April 2013. This marked the beginning of the success story of the Musiktheater. With David Pountney as director and Dennis Russell Davies as musical director, two internationally renowned personalities could be won as godfathers for this premiere. This live recording was made on 12 April 2013 and the Austrian director and producer Felix Breisach was responsible for the visual direction. Remember with us the great moment eight years ago!

AN OVERWHELMING WINTER JOURNEY!

Song cycle by Franz Schubert | With audience favourite Martin Achrainer

Franz Schubert's Winter journey is a marvel of emotional narrative art. In Hermann Schneider's scenic realisation, the 24 songs of love and suffering become an echo chamber of longings, cinematically overwhelming in the setting by Falko Herold and Patrick Bannwart. Due to the great demand, the production with Martin Achrainer and Tommaso Lepore returns to the Großer Saal Musiktheater for three performances. "A perfect evening of music theatre that captivates us from the first to the last moment." Concerti

Blossom Time (Das DREIMÄDERLHAUS) HAS WIT, IS LIVELY AND LIVELY CONDUCTED

An amusing singspiel with music by Franz Schubert!

Generations of operetta lovers have been moved by Heinrich Berté's touching and cheerful Blossom Time (Das Dreimäderlhaus) when they felt sorry for the poor composer Franz Schubert when he was forced to renounce his love for the charming Hannerl. Of course, the Biedermeier idyll shown here has little to do with Schubert's actual life and love reality. And so Ola Rudner (music) and Angelika Messner (lyrics), with a great deal of wit and empathy, have given this old operetta a fresh cell treatment and reconciled it with the current state of Schubert's biography. "That has wit" OÖNachrichten

FRANZ LEHÁRS ROMANTIC OPERETTA: THE LAND OF SMILES

With the catchy tune and world hit

Hardly any other part is so closely associated with the Linz world star Richard Tauber as that of Prince Sou-Chong from Franz Lehár's The Land of Smiles. The composer and "his" tenor, whose personal "Tauber-Lied" "Dein ist mein ganzes Herz" (Your is my whole heart) was once again triumphant at the world premiere in Berlin in 1929. On the occasion of Franz Lehár's 150th birthday, the Landestheater is showing a new production of this most successful Lehár-Tauber operetta.
Premiere | 9 October 2020 | Großer Saal Musiktheater

No, she really has no regrets!

"Piaf" - Musical by Pam Gems at Musiktheater Linz

Édith Piaf was a force of nature. Her numerous lovers, all of whom sooner or later fell from grace and were replaced, could sing a song about it. Édith was free and dangerous, had seen and done everything, and that could be seen and heard. Pam Gems wrote the biographical musical Piaf for the Royal Shakespeare Company in 1978, which quickly conquered the stages of the world. In bursting scenes, she suddenly illuminates stations from Édith Piaf's fascinating life. The piece is peppered with Piaf's great chansons like "L'accordéoniste", "Padam", "La vie en rose", "Mon dieu", "Milord" and "Non, je ne regrette rien". With audience favourite Daniela Dett as Édith Piaf.
