PRESENTER &
CULTURAL JOURNALIST

Welcome!

As a presenter, I adhere to Billy Wilder’s first commandment of show business: “Thou shalt not bore thy audience”. Finding surprising approaches to classics and novelties from all genres is my mission and gives me great pleasure.

 

Whether on ORF cultural television, Radio Österreich 1 or on the open stage, what drives me is curiosity: in music, in people, in art and culture.

 

To indulge in the beautiful with esprit, easily but never superficially—long-standing partners such the Vienna Philharmonic, the ORF Radio Symphony Orchestra Vienna and concert organisers like Jeunesse appreciate that—as most of all, does the audience.

 

I look forward to putting your event in the best light!

100 years of radio – The show

18.10.2024 | 8.15 pm on ORF 2

“I can be heard in Scheibbs and Palermo!” was how the popular chamber singer Leo Slezak commented on his first appearance on the radio – with the follow-up: ”My consolation is that if it goes wrong, nobody can throw anything at me.”
From the very beginning, radio tried to become popular with the help of stars – but they were reluctant because they felt unworthy of speaking and making music in front of a microphone. This alienation with the microphone has now subsided, and radio has been a successful model in Austria for exactly 100 years. And this is also duly celebrated on television: With a rousing show, a journey through ten decades of radio music with the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra under the direction of Christian Kolonovits and hits from Hermann Leopoldi and Leonard Bernstein to Queen, David Bowie and Coldplay.
With stars such as Lylit, Daniel Schmutzhard, Marianne Mendt, Thomas Gansch, Sigrid Hauser, Wolfgang Ambros, Christina Stürmer, Seiler & Speer, Rainhard Fendrich and many more.
Music history comes to life with the presenting duo Michael Ostrowski & Teresa Vogl – playbacks and archive recordings make the flair of the different decades tangible and show how radio has influenced the attitude to life over the last 100 years right up to the present day.

Interchanges: Ethel Merhaut in St. Corona

Monday, 10.05.2021 | 11.25 pm on ORF 2

For years, singer Ethel Merhaut has been an integral part of the young Viennese music scene. With charm and verve she dusts off chansons, foxtrots, film music and tangos of the 20s and 30s and with her interpretation builds a bridge to the present. The selection of songs is not only guided by her own identity as a Viennese with Jewish roots, but also by her interest in changing images of women.
For ORF, the charismatic singer now presents some songs from her new album “Süß & bitter” in the series “Wechselspiele – Konzerte in St. Corona” and in a special setting: Cultural journalist Teresa Vogl acts as a representative for the live audience and talks to the artist about frivolity and feminism in between.

Pasticcio

15.03.2021 | 8.20 am | Radio Ö1

His name is Waldemar…
…and has black hair!

His home is Berlin, but I love him! This is the refrain of a famous hit song by Zarah Leander, interpreted by the young Austrian singer Ethel Merhaut. In the song, a blond Ralf from fairy tale land is sought – one can only say: Think local, in pandemic times this also applies to love.

Reden in der Eden

Teresa Vogl hosts the ORF Late Night Show
“Reden in der Eden” (“Talks in Eden”)

“Da neulich, da sitz’ ma in der Eden und reden”, Helmut Qualtinger once sang, thus finally turning the traditional Viennese nightclub into the most famous bar in the country at the end of the 1950s. The musical Late Night Show of the ORF is embraced by the dignified cocktail party ambience of the Eden Bar: the bar as a place of longing, as a living room, as the last bastion.

The pillars of the show are talk-music performances. Teresa Vogl and violinist Aleksey Igudesman welcome Hollywood film composer Hans Zimmer and Austrian actress Verena Altenberger as talk guests; Austrian shooting star Wenzel Beck performs his song “Immer wieder” live.Immer wieder.
Die Stageband The stage band “The Evesdrops” will provide musical running gags and a music quiz for Hans Zimmer as well as the appropriate accompaniment to Verena Altenberger’s spontaneous belly dance.
Rather than a talk show, Reden in der Eden is a declaration of love for (bar) culture.
