Orchestra
The Haydn Orchestra was founded in 1960 at the initiative of the municipalities and provinces of Bolzano and Trento. Its repertoire ranges from the Baroque to contemporary music. The orchestra has taken part in numerous international festivals, appearing in Austria (in Bregenz, Erl, at the Mozarteum in Salzburg and the Musikverein in Vienna), Germany, Japan, Italy (at the Maggio Musicale Fiorentino, the Sagra Musicale Umbra in Perugia, the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro, Anima Mundi in Pisa, MiTo SettembreMusica in Turin, and the Biennale Musica in Venice), the United States of America, Switzerland, and Hungary.
Among the conductors who have appeared on its podium are, among others, Claudio Abbado, Riccardo Chailly, Jesús López-Cobos, Neville Marriner, Riccardo Muti, and Jeffrey Tate. After the nearly thirty-year tenure of Andrea Mascagni, the role of Artistic Director has been held by Hubert Stuppner, Gustav Kuhn, Daniele Spini, Giorgio Battistelli, and André Comploi (from 2025).
