Robert Rother, the renowned trumpeter of the Austrian cult brass ensemble “Mnozil Brass,” has been dismissed without notice from his position as a music school teacher. This was reported by KURIER on July 13, 2026. Rother, who worked as an educator for decades, lost his position in June. The exact reasons for the summary dismissal were not detailed in the article. Rother was known not only for his international success as a musician with Mnozil Brass but also as a dedicated teacher at a music school in Lower Austria. The dismissal apparently came as a surprise and without prior warning, causing a stir in the music scene and the educational sector. The case raises questions regarding working conditions and termination procedures at public music schools. Rother himself has not yet commented publicly on the background of the situation. Mnozil Brass fans and colleagues have expressed dismay at the development. The future of the musician and educator is now uncertain.
