The Salzburg Festival opens the summer of 2020 with a work which played a major role in the oeuvre of all three Festival founders – Richard Strauss, Hugo von Hofmannsthal and Max Reinhardt: Elektra by Richard Strauss. The production is directed by Krzysztof Warlikowski, the Vienna Philharmonic play under the baton of Franz Welser-Möst. The role of Elektra will be embodied by the Lithuanian rising star Aušrine Stundyte. That of Chrysothemis will be sung by Asmik Grigorian. They are joined by Tanja Ariane Baumgartner as Clytemnestra, Michael Laurenz as Aegisth and Derek Welton as Orest.

You will not have to forego a Mozart opera in such an important year. Christof Loy directs Così fan tutte, Joana Mallwitz conducts the Vienna Philharmonic, making her Festival debut in Così fan tutte. A young ensemble has been engaged: Elsa Dreisig takes on the role of Fiordiigi and Marianne Crebassa that of her sister Dorabella. Bogdan Volkov sings the role of Ferrando and Andrè Schuen that of Guglielmo. Lea Desandre and Johannes Martin Kränzle appear as Despina and Don Alfonso.

The Vienna Philharmonic, under the baton of Andris Nelsons, play the 6th Symphony in A minor by Gustav Mahler.
