Welcoming new players after successful auditions at Teatro alla Scala in Milan

By mirjam - July 29, 2024

Following auditions held on 8 June in Milan, Italy, Theresia is very pleased to announce the addition of three new players to our orchestra.
‍

These early-career period instrument players will be joining Theresia:

Bernadetta Wieczerzyńska, cellist from Poland, studying at the Paderewski Academy of Music in Poznan
Márton Kóródi, horn player from Hungary, graduate from the Royal Conservatory of Music The Hague
Phyllis Breit, oboist from Austria, studying at the Music and Arts Private University of Vienna (MUK)

We look very much forward to welcoming the new members for their first project with Theresia: some of them will participate in our upcoming Mozart residency this October in Nova Gorica, the 2025 European Culture Capital, while others will join us in the next year.

A special thanks to oboist Alfredo Bernardini and violinist Gemma Longoni for their valuable contributions as part of the selection panel. Alongside our artistic director Mario Martinoli, they guided an extensive chamber music workshop in which all invited candidates participated to explore several works of some of the most significant composers of the Classical era. Compositions by Beethoven, Haydn, Carl Stamtiz, Massonneau and Mozart were at the center of the musical workshop of Theresia’s auditions.

A warm welcome to Bernadetta, Márton, and Phyllis: we can’t wait for you to join our ranks!
