To celebrate Mozart’s 250th birthday, the Salzburg Festival has prepared a Mozart lineup for all (100% Mozart, in case you thought we were lying), whether you’re a new fan or a seasoned expert. For three weeks, audiences have the chance to discover and rediscover works from Mozart’s repertoire, spanning from his childhood to celebrity status. The Irrfahrten - or peregrinations - trilogy, directed, choreographed, and co-written by the multi-talented Joachim Schlömer, highlights the lesser-known works in Mozart's repertoire: from his very first true opera-buffa in three acts, La Finta Semplice (Irrfahrten I), to the unfinished Lo sposo deluso and L'oca del Cairo (Irrfahrten III), via the musical setting of the composer's epistolary correspondence (Irrfahrten II). These operas stand alongside a number of instrumental pieces, lieders, requiems, and other musical ‘peregrinations’. The trilogy in its entirety is featured on medici.tv!
