Salzburger Konzertgesellschaft

starting in may 2012
Unique "period sound" concerts for music lovers.

First class pianists perform Mozarts piano compositions on a replica of a Stein forte-piano from 1775.

Mozart visited and befriended Stein in Augsburg in 1777, during the (unsuccessful) job-hunting tour that took him also to Mannheim and Paris. An enthusiastic letter that Mozart wrote to his father Leopold is informative concerning Stein and Mozart's own preferences in pianos:

"This time I shall begin at once with Stein's pianofortes. Before I had seen any of his make, Späth's claviers had always been my favourites. But now I much prefer Stein's". 

Please feel invited to get to our agency in Mozart’s birthplace (ground level-entrance at Universitätsplatz). Interested qualified and knowledgeable persons may have a try with the historical piano during opening hours.
