Bayreuth for Beginners

That Herbert Rosendorfer has a lot to say about Bayreuth is shown by this geographical, historical, literary, musical, and cheeky guide for Wagner fans and others. "Festival Bayreuth and the city of Bayreuth stand opposite each other, so to speak, without points of contact. Apart from their common geographical longitude and latitude, they have nothing to do with each other. The Wagnerian perceives the city of Bayreuth, if he perceives it at all, as an alien body. Nevertheless, the truth must be honored: without the festivals, Bayreuth would be nothing, or at most one of three dozen German residences or imperial cities that today lie insignificantly on the periphery of transport routes and have some highly interesting architectural monuments from their heyday to show - nothing more." "Bayreuth for Beginners" is a cheeky guide for enemies and friends of the festivals in general.
