CULTURAL EVENTS IN THE REGION
Bezau Beatz
This year, in addition to the main stage event held in the engine sheds of the “Wälderbähnle”, the Bezau Beatz will also be performed at the following venues:
Schubertiade in Schwarzenberg
A festival for Franz Schubert. The first Schubertiade was organised in the year 1976 by a certain Hermann Prey in Hohenems, with an eye to restoring Franz Schubert to his rightful place alongside Mozart and Beethoven. Very quickly this Austrian town in Vorarlberg developed into a leading festival destination and a popular rendez-vous for international audiences. Keen to meet top-class musicians in a venue of manageable size, these audiences also appreciated the fact that, instead of offering a programme open to arbitrary variation, this festival had clearly defined parameters: an uncompromising dedication to the music of Franz Schubert.
