Mozart pays homage to the glass harmonica with his last chamber music work. Haydn, Salieri, and many others compose for this instrument. Around 1850, the glorious era of the glass harmonica gradually comes to an end.     <\/p><p>\u200bArriving in the 21st century, the glass harmonica is once again allowed to shine. The renaissance of the glass harmonica is closely linked to the artistic journey of the Vienna Glass Harmonica Duo \u2013 Christa and Gerald Sch\u00f6nfeldinger. For 25 years, the Vienna Glass Harmonica Duo has offered its audience a symbiosis of poetic-virtuosic chamber music and meditative soundscapes of unforeseen intensity.  <\/p><p>\u200bWhether at the Royal Albert Hall London, the Vienna Musikverein, the Salzburg Festival, the Konzerthaus Berlin, the Menuhin Festival Gstaad, Suntory Hall in Tokyo, the Elbphilharmonie Hamburg, or the Kennedy Center Washington: their melodic art from glass inspires, fascinates, and touches.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-2a2bc84 elementor-section-content-middle elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"2a2bc84\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-background-overlay\"><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-970f199 elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"970f199\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-340f7f5 animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"340f7f5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:100}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Benjamin Franklin is Considered the Inventor<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-cf239ad animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"cf239ad\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:200}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Spherical Sounds<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-308f7d9 animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"308f7d9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:300}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Benjamin Franklin was an American diplomat, natural scientist, inventor (including the lightning rod in 1752), and a member of the St. John&#8217;s Masonic Lodge. During a stay in London, according to official history, he heard a presentation concert by Edmund Delaval on the Musical Glasses, a precursor instrument to the glass harmonica. This experience inspired him to invent the glass harmonica.  <\/p><p>The playing technique had already been introduced by the Musical Glasses; the attachment of individual, approximately hemispherical glass bowls with a neck attachment or hole in the center of their curvature by means of cork stoppers on a horizontal axis was also known as early as 1741 for use in carillons and later in clock chimes. Franklin is generally credited with the idea of rotating the glass bowls, which were on a common axis, with a foot pedal, allowing a single player to perform pieces of piano literature difficulty on the glasses. <\/p><p>The small distances between the individual nested bowls, whose diameter decreases towards the higher notes, also create playing possibilities comparable to keyboard instruments.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-50 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-52090fc elementor-invisible\" data-id=\"52090fc\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\" data-settings=\"{&quot;animation&quot;:&quot;bounceIn&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-092358e animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"092358e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInLeft&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1600\" height=\"1135\" src=\"https:\/\/glasharmonika.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/wiener-glasharmonika-gallerie-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-image-4948\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/glasharmonika.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/wiener-glasharmonika-gallerie-2.jpg 1600w, https:\/\/glasharmonika.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/wiener-glasharmonika-gallerie-2-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/glasharmonika.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/wiener-glasharmonika-gallerie-2-1024x726.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/glasharmonika.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/wiener-glasharmonika-gallerie-2-768x545.jpg 768w, https:\/\/glasharmonika.at\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/wiener-glasharmonika-gallerie-2-1536x1090.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-467b4cf2 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"467b4cf2\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-2b5811fe\" data-id=\"2b5811fe\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fc1ec9d animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"fc1ec9d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:100}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">England as the Cradle in the 18th Century<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-691610e animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"691610e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:200}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The First Concerts in Spring Gardens<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d9834a0 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d9834a0\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>The first concerts on the new harmonica (as Franklin&#8217;s Armonica was called after its spread in German-speaking countries) were given by Marianne Davies (1740 &#8211; c. 1818), a relative of Franklin, as early as the beginning of 1762 in the Great Room in Spring Gardens and shortly thereafter in Bristol, London, and Dublin. In America, Stephen Forrage was the first to play the harmonica in a public concert in December 1764 at the Assembly Rooms in Lodge Alley \/ Philadelphia. In 1768, Marianne Davies undertook a concert tour through Europe, particularly to Italy, with her sister, the singer Cecilia Davies (1750-1836). Franklin had specifically lent Marianne Davies an instrument for this purpose. Both sisters are said to have established themselves at the Viennese court with Gluck&#8217;s help. They resided with J. A. Hasse, who composed the Cantata pour soprano, harmonica e orchestre for Marianne and Cecilia in 1769.     <\/p><p>In the further development of the glass harmonica into a pronounced fashionable instrument, numerous other instruments were soon produced in large numbers, especially in the then German-speaking areas by many manufacturers. In these regions, the raw materials necessary for glass production were abundant, and the techniques of glass processing were correspondingly well developed. The Karlsruhe court Kapellmeister J.A. Schmittbaur was the first to extend the range of his harmonica from c-f&#8221; (later c-c&#8221;&#8216;) and also taught Mariane Kirchge\u00dfner (1769 &#8211; 1808), who was largely blinded at the age of four by smallpox.  <\/p><p>In January 1791, she embarked on her first concert tour through Europe with her future companion and patron, the influential music publisher Heinrich Philipp Carl Bossler. Her harmonica concert in Vienna on June 10, 1791, prompted W. A. Mozart to compose a Quintet for Harmonica, Flute, Oboe, Viola, and Cello (KV 617) and a Solo Adagio (KV 617a = KV 356) for her. On August 19, the premiere of KV 617 followed, which was to become the foundation of her ten-year, exceptionally successful virtuoso tour.  <\/p><p>Although Mariane Kirchge\u00dfner remained the most famous harmonica player, Pavel Masek was reportedly at least as virtuosic according to critics, while a Carl Schneider from Gotha is described by far as the most accomplished harmonica virtuoso.<\/p><p>Text: Lorenz Duftschmid<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-432259f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"432259f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-f02a99c\" data-id=\"f02a99c\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-af28eec animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"af28eec\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:100}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h5 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Austria as the Cradle in the 21st Century<\/h5>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5d8915a animated-fast elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5d8915a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:200}\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">The First Concerts in Vienna<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9172f2d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"9172f2d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>More than two centuries after its heyday, the glass harmonica is flourishing again in Austria.
