Works by Anton Bruckner and Detlev Glanert are top of the bill in the orchestral concerts of the Vienna Symphony Orchestra and the Vorarlberg Symphony Orchestra in 2012. 

On 23 July, Markus Stenz conducts Anton Bruckner's 5th Symphony as well as Detlev Glanert's Einsamkeit (premiered in 2010), a reworking of the Schubert song. 

On 30 July there is the welcome return of the eccentric Greek conductor Teodor Currentzis, who caused a sensation with his interpretation of Weinberg's opera The Passenger at the Bregenz Festival of 2010. The concert offers a chance to hear Weinberg's Concerto for Cello and Orchestra in C minor.

The Austrian composer and conductor HK Gruber, whose opera Tales from the Vienna Woods will be staged at the Festspielhaus in 2013, conducts a concert of his own programming on 6 August. It features his own composition Frankenstein!! in addition to works by Hanns Eisler and Kurt Weill.
