Martin Haselböck

Martin Haselböck has been counted among the world's most prominent organists since the mid-'70s, making over 50 solo recordings, giving numerous concerts at some of the world's major concert venues, and serving as Vienna's Court Organist. From the early 1980s he has been active as a conductor, both in concert and in operatic performances, turning out even more recordings in this role, mostly with his own Wiener Akademie Orchester in repertory favoring Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, and Liszt on period instruments. Haselböck and the Akademie often re-construct original performances of music in their original venues, as with their Beethoven Symphony cycle from the 2010s.
