The MusikTheater an der Wien proudly presents Marianna Martines’ rarely performed oratorio Isacco figura del redentore.

With this masterpiece, director Eva-Maria Höckmayr makes her Vienna debut.
Also premiering is Voice Killer by Czech composer Miroslav Srnka on 13 June 2025. Based on a true WWII crime case, it follows a US soldier haunted by his mother’s lullabies. Srnka and librettist Tom Holloway focus on the women whose voices made them victims. Directed by Cordula Däuper and conducted by Finnegan Downie Dear, Voice Killer features Klangforum Wien and an exciting cast.
The 25/26 season, now officially presented, marks the first full season in the renovated house. With twelve new productions, a revival and a vibrant programme across three venues, MusikTheater an der Wien continues its bold artistic mission.
