Hannah Eisendle is a conductor, composer, and pianist with a particular focus on the repertoire of the 20th and 21st centuries. In June 2023, she made her debut with the ORF Radio-Symphonieorchester Wien, conducting Britten’s Four Sea Interludes in the Großer Musikvereinssaal in Vienna. Just three months earlier, she had led the Austrian premiere of Britten’s Ballad of Heroes in the same venue, alongside works by Stravinsky and Bernstein.
She has worked as assistant conductor to Cristian Măcelaru at the Orchestre National de France and conducted the Göttinger Symphonieorchester. She has also led music education concerts with the Tonkünstler-Orchester, with whom she premiered her orchestral work crushed ice II at the Grafenegg Festival in 2020.
Opera is a central part of Eisendle’s artistic work, reflecting her interest in interdisciplinary collaboration. Since August 2023, she has been working at the Stadttheater Klagenfurt, where she recently made her conducting debut with Johann Strauss' Die Fledermaus. She served for several years as conductor and musical assistant for youth opera productions at the Theater an der Wien, where she also acted as musical director of the children’s opera and assisted in several productions with Neue Oper Wien. Additionally, she worked as musical assistant and conductor at oper rundum and assisted on Janáček’s Jenůfa at the Théâtre du Capitole de Toulouse.
As a composer, she was commissioned by the Wiener Staatsoper to write a youth opera titled Elektrische Fische, which premiered in January 2024. Her orchestral work Heliosis, commissioned by the ORF Radio-Symphonieorchester Wien, received international acclaim, including at the BBC Proms in London.
Hannah Eisendle studied composition and conducting at the Universität für Musik und darstellende Kunst Wien and piano at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg. She has participated in conducting masterclasses with Marin Alsop, Cristian Măcelaru, Johannes Schlaefli, and Sigmund Thorp, and gained further experience as a participant in the Darmstadt Summer Course and as a Conducting Fellow at the Cabrillo Festival of Contemporary Music in Santa Cruz (CA).
