In addition to the successful master's programme in wind orchestra conducting, the Mozarteum University, as a competent partner of the Salzburg Wind Music Association, started the part-time university course in wind orchestra conducting for the first time in March 2019, financed by the province of Salzburg.

Our students Vivi Vassileva and Richard Putz are the winners of this year's Prix Iannis Xenakis. The prize, established by the Schleswig-Holstein Musik Festival in cooperation with the percussion class on the initiative of Martin Grubinger, promotes young percussion soloists and is intended to pave the way to the major concert halls and international music festivals. The participants had to conceive an extensive solo recital concert and present it in front of a 6-person jury.

Since the 2016/2017 academic year, the Mozarteum University has been awarding the "Prize for Excellent Master's Theses", which recognizes outstanding theses by graduates who address their chosen topics in an innovative, original, unusual or particularly sustainably relevant way.
