    PAUL SCHWEINESTER TENOR A CD recording of Entführung aus dem Serail, togeth- er with Diana Damrau and Rolando Villazón, was released on Deutsche Grammophon in fall 2016. Its success led to a second collaboration, in which Paul Schweinester recorded the role of Monostatos in The Magic Flute. The singer/performer relishes the challenges of contemporary opera: he appeared as Toni in Elegie für junge Liebende at Theater an der Wien and sang the part of Josef Powolny in Friedrich Cerha’s Onkel Präsident at the Prince Regent Theater in Munich. He also sang François Deschamp’s Jean und Gilles at the Sirene Operntheater in Vienna. Paul Schweinester’s numerous appearances with re- nowned orchestras and conductors are a testament VITA to his international appeal. In fall 2017, he performed Bach’s Christmas Oratorio with the Gaechinger Can- torey under the direction of H.C. Rademann at the Internationally acclaimed Austrian tenor Paul Baden-Baden Festspielhaus, the Gasteig in Munich, Schweinester is at home in all areas of classical music. the Stuttgart Liederhalle, and at the International House of Music in Moscow.

Der Vogelhändler vom heurigen Mörbischer Operettenfesti- val, Tenor SEBASTIAN SCHWEINESTER gestaltet im Dezem- ber Brahms singuläres musikalisches Märchen „Die schöne Magelone“. Das internationale Spitzenklavierduo CHIPAK-KUSCHNIR aus Deutschland führt uns in die Welt der viel zu wenig bekannten Perlen der Klavierliteratur für zwei Klaviere bzw. Klavier zu vier Händen. Das berühmte ALTENBERG TRIO WIEN gastiert im Februar bei uns und im März gibt die neue künstlerische Leiterin des Int. Brahmsfestes Mürzzuschlag, die Pianistin SOFJA GÜL- BADAMOVA bei ihrem Klavierabend einen kleinen Vorge- schmack auf das Programm des Brahmsfestes im September 2018. Ihr vielbejubeltes Konzert im Jänner 2017 führte ja zur Übertragung der künstlerischen Leitung des Brahmsfestes in den nächsten Jahren. Den Zyklus der Museumskonzerte 2017/2018 beschließen zwei wunderbare Konzerte mit jungen, preisgekrönten Ensembles der Spitzenklasse: im April gastiert das holländische DUDOK-STREICHQUARTETT und im Mai das Berliner NOTOS-KLAVIERQUARTETT im Kaisersaal des Brahms- Museums. Das Notos-Quartett spielt nach dem Auftritt in Mürzzuschlag sein Debut-Konzert im Wiener Konzerthaus. Nutzen Sie wieder die vergünstigten Abonnements, wir stehen für Informationen und Kartenbestellungen sehr gerne auch telefonisch jederzeit zur Verfügung: 03852 3434 Wir freuen uns auf ein Wiedersehen im Brahms-Museum Mürzzuschlag! Herzlichst Ronald & Elisabeth Fuchs MUSEUMSKONZERTE 17/18 SAMSTAG, 11.
