Impressions of our “Hollywood in Baden” Concert 2020
Despite the current global situation, Hollywood Music Workshop, under the inspirational guidance of its director Lilo Bellotto was able to organize this beautiful concert & HMW 2020 afterparty outside our usual home Casino Baden.
The marvellous Hollywood Jazz Combo took us back to the golden years of Hollywood featuring the wonderful arrangements of Grammy Award-winning composer/arranger Nan Schwartz. Our lovely soloist, soprano Arabella Fenyves guided us through England with melodies from “Downton Abbey” written by John Lunn. And last but not least the young upcoming composer Roman Kariolou presented Viennas enchanting versatility with his music to the TV Series “Hotel Sacher”, “Maria Theresia” and “Vienna Blood”
A big ‘‘Thank you!‘‘ to the Hollywood Jazz Band, Arabella Fenyves, Nan Schwartz, Roman Kariolou, John Lunn, our partners Casino Baden, City of Baden, the government of Lower Austria & all participants for making this possible.
Looking forward to next year!

Some reviews about the HMW 2018-2019

“Having a great time attending the Hollywood Music Workshop in Baden, Austria, for the second year in a row. Last week I had the privilege to meet and learn from legendary game composer GARRY SCHYMAN (composer of Bioshock) and this week with the great JOHN LUNN (composer of Downton Abbey). It’s really just incredible to be here, to meet and get to know other composers, and to study with experienced and accomplished professionals in the industry. Here’s me at our visit to Synchron stage in Vienna to observe a recording session with Garry Schyman.”
