What a way to start the new semester!
Yesterday, we all got together in our foyer to celebrate the start of a new study year, welcome our new professors and introduce some of the projects we’ve been working on and that will be rolling out the coming months.
We were also finally able to welcome Maria Kalesnikava to Universität Mozarteum and award her the honorary professorship, that we decided on four years ago, while she was imprisoned for her fight for freedom in Belarus. Her inspiring words and story have moved us all and we are grateful, that she will be staying with us in Salzburg to write her dissertation, where she will research the connection between music and political power.

We mourn the loss of one of the most influential figures at our university and, in particular, in the Department of Opera and Music Theater. On September 24, 2026, the renowned conductor, passionate educator, and professor emeritus Josef Wallnig passed away at the age of 80. With his passing, the music world and our academic community have lost a widely esteemed ambassador of the music of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Born in Salzburg in 1946, Josef Wallnig remained closely connected to the Mozarteum University throughout his life. After studying piano, composition, and conducting - and earning a doctorate in law - his artistic career took him to the Vienna State Opera and the Salzburg Festival, among other venues. In 1980, he was appointed professor at Mozarteum University.

For decades, he shaped generations of young artists. As head of the departments of voice and musical theater performance, as vice rector, and especially as the founder and director of the Mozart Opera Institute, through which he set international standards in the practical research and interpretation of Mozart’s operatic works.

In addition to his extraordinary expertise, his students especially valued his humanity, warmth, and enthusiasm. His legacy will live on in the many artists he has influenced. We will always remember him with gratitude and respect.

Congratulations to Lea Oltmanns for winning the A⁴ - Austrian Art Alumni Award 2026 🎉

Lea, who is a directing graduate of Thomas-Bernhard-Institut was honored for her theater project “Gossipgirls”, which focuses on gossip and informal communication networks as historical and contemporary spaces of solidarity, trust, and knowledge exchange among FLINTA people*. Through this project, Oltmanns examines a form of communication that is often devalued and explores its social and political significance.

We can’t wait to see how she will further develop this project!

The A⁴ – Austrian Art Alumni Award was first presented in 2025 and is sponsored by the Federal Ministry for Women, Science, and Research Bundesministerium für Frauen, Wissenschaft und Forschung in collaboration with the six public Austrian art universities. The program’s goal is to support outstanding graduates as they transition from their studies to an independent artistic practice.
Each of the six award recipients will receive a grant of 24.000 euros over a period of twelve months. This will enable them to carry out the artistic projects they submitted as part of their applications and to further develop their artistic work.
