"The Vienna Philharmonic mourns the loss of Christoph von Dohnányi. The cosmopolitan, opinionated, and charismatic conductor worked with us from 1966 to 2019 in Vienna, Salzburg, and on tour. We will remember his artistic work with sincere appreciation. Our thoughts are with his family," says Professor Daniel Froschauer, Chairman of the Vienna Philharmonic.
