Florian Wieninger

Florian Wieninger is an Austrian organist, harpsichordist, and conductor specializing in historically informed performance practice. He's known for his insightful interpretations of Baroque and Classical repertoire, particularly the works of Joseph Haydn. Wieninger frequently performs with period instrument ensembles and has made a number of acclaimed recordings, including Haydn's complete organ concertos and a collection of Orlando di Lasso's "Musica reservata." He also serves as the artistic director of "Haydnregion Niederösterreich," an organization dedicated to promoting Haydn's music and legacy in his native region.

Beyond his work with established masterpieces, Wieninger is also a champion of lesser-known composers and has explored fascinating musical landscapes like the Baroque vespers tradition at Stift Heiligenkreuz Abbey, as documented in his "Vesperae" recording. His projects often reflect a deep connection to Austrian musical history and a commitment to bringing forgotten gems to light. He's also released recordings exploring broader themes, such as his album "Arcadia," which delves into the pastoral and idyllic in music.
