Established in the year 2000 in Slovenj Gradec, this Association honours the memory of Hugo Wolf (1860-1903), an eminent composer of Romantic German lieder who was born here in 1860. The Association is based at the Birthplace of Hugo Wolf, Slovenj Gradec, now a Music School. At the Birthplace of Hugo Wolf the Association aims to found a memorial museum and an international Hugo Wolf documentation centre.



Wolf's Lieder

As Hugo Wolf was particularly noted for his art songs, or Lieder, the regular activities of Hugo Wolf Association include organisation of evenings of his Lieder, known under the title Wolf's Connection.

The international solo singing school is organised annually; it is led by Prof. Breda Zakotnik, Salzburg Muzarteum who is a honorary member of the Association.

Publishing and research activity

The Association has published several memoirs related to Hugo Wolf and some translations of Wolf's Lieder into Slovenian (from German and Italian).

International cooperation

Hugo Wolf Association has organised several international symposia. In 2003, at the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his death in Vienna, the Hugo Wolf Association organised many events, concerts and exhibitions in Slovenj Gradec, and participated in several projects in other cities, including Linz, Fribourg, Freising, Ottawa and Graz. The Association also collaborates with the Hugo Wolf Society in Vienna.
