Vienna University of Music conference

December 18, 2014

The Vienna University of Music announces the 2015 Laudate Dominum conference for organists, choral conductors, singers, and church musicians to be held February 1–7 in St. Pölten, Austria, just west of Vienna. Faculty includes: Wolfgang Reisinger (professor of organ, Vienna Church Music Conservatory), Erwin Ortner (conductor, Arnold Schoenberg Choir, Vienna), Paul Crabb (professor of choral conducting, University of Missouri), Josef Habringer (Kapellmeister, Linz Cathedral), and voice faculty members Ursula Langmayr (soprano), Gerda Hondros (alto), Thomas Künne (tenor), and Gerd Kenda (bass).

Laudate Dominum enables organists to study literature and improvisation in private lessons and classes. Choral conductors study in masterclass settings, while singers participate in ensembles and have the opportunity to study privately with some of the leading singers in Austria. There are additional classes on Gregorian chant. English language study is available.

In addition to conference activities, American musicians attending the conference are eligible for a musical sightseeing tour in Vienna, including tickets to major Viennese operatic and concert venues.
