Mallnitz was once again dominated by classical music at the turn of the year 2024-25: with two impressive concerts, the Pro Musica Mallnitz and the invited artists showed why it has been a base for classical music in the Hohe Tauern National Park for decades.
Concert in the Mallnitz parish church - December 29, 2024
The first evening was on December 29 with a concert in the Mallnitz parish church with its fantastic acoustics.
The festive atmosphere of the church provided the perfect setting to bring the year to a musical close.
An evening full of emotion, which was met with enthusiasm by the visitors.
36th New Year's Concert - January 2, 2025
The next highlight was the 36th New Year’s Concert, which took place in Mallnitz on January 2, 2025.
The renowned Zalodek Ensemble with members of the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra led by Martin Zalodek delighted the audience with an extraordinary program. Unfortunately, Laura Olivia Spengel had to cancel due to a cold.
The musical quality and passion of the musicians made this concert in a packed Tauernsaal an unforgettable start to the new year.
Pro Musica Mallnitz - Music tradition since 1988
Since its founding in 1988, Pro Musica Mallnitz has been dedicated to cultivating and promoting classical music. With a high-caliber offering of concerts, Mallnitz has developed into a cultural meeting point that attracts music lovers from near and far year after year. With the Musiksommer Mallnitz, it also continues the tradition of classical summer retreats.
The careful selection of artists always guarantees the highest quality. In combination with the impressive natural backdrop of the Hohe Tauern National Park, Pro Musica impressively demonstrates how well culture and nature complement each other.
Culture and nature - a perfect symbiosis
The Pro Musica Mallnitz music festival is an example of how the beauty of nature and the art of music merge to create a unique experience. The majestic mountain world and the classical sounds create an atmosphere that inspires and touches in equal measure.
Conclusion: A cultural highlight in the Hohe Tauern
The concerts at the turn of the year 2024/25 have once again demonstrated why Pro Musica Mallnitz is renowned far beyond the borders of Mallnitz. The next concert will take place on April 16, 2025 in the parish church of Mallnitz: “The Seven Last Words of Our Savior on the Cross” – Joseph Haydn: String Quartet op. 51, and afterwards we look forward to the program of the Musiksommer Mallnitz 2025, during which, from mid-July to September, the Hohe Tauern National Park will be characterized by classical music!
