Nikolaus Harnoncourt Center opened in Austria.

The Nikolaus Harnoncourt Center (NHZ) has officially opened at the Anton Bruckner Private University in Linz, Austria. It houses the estate of the late conductor Nikolaus Harnoncourt, featuring a seven-decade archive of his teaching and performance materials. The center's mission is to digitize this archive and make it accessible to the public. Harnoncourt's annotated scores include works by various composers, showcasing his significant contributions to early music interpretation. The inauguration included discussions with notable figures, an exhibition on Harnoncourt's life and music, and plans for educational initiatives like the Nikolaus Harnoncourt Summer School for emerging artists. The NHZ aims to serve as both a musicological research center and an educational forum, honoring Harnoncourt's legacy and fostering musical exploration.
