On November 11, 2022 a concert took place in the Klagenfurt Cathedral, in which Fux's Mass K 47 was the principal work. The performance was prepared by Ramona Hocker (Gustav Mahler Private University of Music) in the context of a seminar with students and realized by them under the direction of Cathedral conductor Thomas Wasserfaller.
The musical quality of the Mass in C major K 47 (in the festive style, with trumpets and timpani) is extraordinary, which is why the rehearsal for the modern first performance (since 1731) was worthwhile. This setting of the Ordinary is also interesting for Fux philology because two shorter movements exist as variants for the eight-part "Crucifixus," which have been preserved as autographs. The original parts are kept in the ÖNB (Mus.Hs.16118).
In addition to works by Georg Muffat, Isaac Posch and Johann Sebastian Bach, the trio sonata in G minor FuxWV III.1.24 (K 370) was also performed. This established a local reference, since this instrumental piece was already heard in Klagenfurt in 1728.
Follow-up performances for 2023 are already planned, the performance material of the Mass K 47 is to be published in the series Fux concertato (#8).
Extracts of the concert were published here in February 2023, a trailer with background information can be found here.

We are pleased that the work on the Fux edition and the development of Fux-online and the database are again receiving project funding from the City of Vienna, Kulturabteilung, Wissenschafts- und Forschungsförderung (MA 7). The new project mainly concerns the opera Costanza e fortezza and will start in October 2022.

On 9 August 2021, 2:05 p.m. Ö1 broadcasts a concert of the styriarte (recorded on 10.7.2021 in the parish church of Stainz). Performed was the Dixit Dominus in G minor HWV 232 by Handel, the Magnificat in G minor RV 610 by Vivaldi and at the beginning the "Nisi Dominus" from the Vespers K 68 by Fux. The Arnold Schoenberg Choir under the direction of Jordi Savall appears. The musical material was prepared according to the source in the ÖNB as part of the ÖAW long-term project "J. J. Fux - Werke".

The fourth edition of the styriarte's Fux Opera Festival, which has been held annually since 2018, brought a rarity of Viennese baroque opera to the stage in the form of the Serenata Psiche. In a fabulously beautiful but also witty and ironic production (Adrián Schvarzstein) in the arcade courtyard of Eggenberg Castle in Graz, the five vocal soloists (leading roles: Carlotta Colombo, Monica Piccinini, Raffaele Pe) offered music theatre of the highest order. The Arnold Schoenberg Choir (rehearsal: Erwin Ortner) set special sonic highlights this year, while the Ensemble Zefiro under the sovereign direction of Alfredo Bernardini has already become a constant at Fux operas in Graz. A sample can be seen at https://styriarte.com/mediathek/amor-und-psyche.
The collaboration with the Styrian Music Festival and Alfredo Bernardini, which has been in place since 2018, proved particularly exciting for this year's production. As part of the ÖAW's long-term project "Johann Joseph Fux - Werke" (Johann Joseph Fux - Works), a mixed version was created that added two arias with recitatives and two choruses to the parts composed by Fux in 1720/22, which had been supplemented by Antonio Caldara for the first performance in 1720 (due to Fux being unable to perform due to illness).
The relatively complex source situation thus became the occasion for a delightful dialogue between two quite different musical styles. The Covid situation meant that both the score and the orchestral parts still had to be adapted during rehearsals due to necessary cuts and strokes. Fortunately, the conception of the Fux edition is flexible enough - in addition to the print edition for scholars, open access material for practitioners is also offered - to overcome such challenges.
A video recording of the Graz performance of Fux's Psiche will be available on the styriarte homepage from 4.7.2021.

A CD recording with selected arias by Fux has been released, interpreted by Maria Ladurner (soprano). The arias are from better-known and partly still unpublished operas and oratorios by Fux, including Julo Acanio, Dafne in lauro, Giunone placata, Il Testamento, and La Deposizione. An interesting cross-section of the music-dramatic works of the court composer and chapelmaster.
