‘The Condition of Mozart’: Mozart Year 2006 and the New Vienna
TLDR
The broad strokes of economic and political globalisation in Central Europe and the concomitant flows of people in the current fin-de-siecle manifest themselves as shifts in the practice of classical music in Vienna.Abstract:
The broad strokes of economic and political globalisation in Central Europe and the concomitant flows of people in the current fin-de-siecle manifest themselves as shifts in the practice of ‘classical’ music in Vienna, a practice itself the legacy of analogous processes during the previous fin-de-siecle.

This article argues that ultimately, the practice of classical music in Vienna continues to serve as a site for experiments in cosmopolitanism.read more
