What's Not There: Episode 6 (Manfred Honeck‪)‬ What's Not There

    • Music Interviews

Stefano Flavoni sits down with Manfred Honeck, music director of the Pittsburgh Symphony. With Grammy nominations every year, Maestro Honeck has brought the Pittsburgh Symphony to extraordinary heights. Hailing from a musical family in Austria, and after nearly a decade as a violist in the Vienna Philharmonic, Manfred Honeck has risen to become one of the most prominent conductors of our time. We take time to discuss his recent production of Beethoven’s Fidelio, directed by two-time Academy Award winner Christoph Waltz, not to mention a slew of other composers, including Schubert, Bruckner, Strauss, and more. We also discuss our role as musicians in a turbulent society, as the pandemic rages on, as well as the importance of continuing to make music with our loved ones.
