The rich musical culture in Wernigerode is supported and promoted by the work of the Orchestra Foundation.

By organising and financing the „Frédéric Chopin – International Piano Competition Wernigerode“  the Wernigerode Orchestra Foundation continues its mission to promote young talent, support musical excellence and actively shape the cultural future of the Harz region.

The Wernigerode Orchestra Foundation is a living example of how civic engagement, artistic passion and regional solidarity can achieve great things when combined.
