New music magic in Zwettl: Karl Eichinger heads the concert days

The pianist Karl Eichinger returns to a special place - his birthplace Stift Zwettl. From November 1st, he will take over the management of the festival, which was previously managed by Marco Paolacci. Paolacci had to withdraw for private reasons, which was the reason for the new occupation. This change brings with it some exciting news, as the new director explained in an interview with the NÖN.

Eichinger emphasizes that the festival, which used to be called "interaction", will now be known as "International Concert Days". This new name reflects a comprehensive reorientation of the program. The goal is to make the music offer more modern and to address a wider target group. In the past, the festival focused on rather traditional styles of music, but under Eichinger's direction there will be an expansion to various modern music styles to inspire the audience.

changes in the program

The decision to rename and redesign the program is part of Eichinger's vision to revitalize the festival. "We want to offer a platform that not only offers classical music, but also modern interpretations and compositional new works," he said. He wants to bring a breath of fresh air to the festival and present new artists and talents.

In order to implement these changes, work is done together with a committed team to bring in various musical perspectives. This interdisciplinary approach is intended to help make the "international concert days" a unique event that attracts both locals and visitors.

The return of Karl Eichinger to his homeland also has symbolic importance. He is not only a talented pianist, but also an estimated teacher and mentor at various music schools. His commitment to the music and the promotion of young talents will have an important importance in his new role.

With regard to the future, many new ideas are already being planned to enrich the musical landscape in the region. "We will take the opportunity to pursue innovative approaches and implement our vision for the festival," added Eichinger.

The next few months will promise exciting changes and a new chapter for the festival at the Zwettl Abbey. Interested parties can look forward to a freshly designed program that combines both tradition and innovation.
