BAYREUTH FESTIVAL
About
A theater created for a single composer: the Bayreuth Festspielhaus. With an auditorium in which music unfolds like in no other theater in the world. Without ostentation, reduced to the essentials: the experience of his works as a celebration.
Connoisseurs, friends, skeptics – they all come to the Grüner Hügel every summer to engage with his legacy, away from the big cultural metropolises. Since 1876, when he first performed his “Ring des Nibelungen” as a cycle.
Richard Wagner: revolutionary, utopian – his legacy remains alive here. At the most exciting music theater festival in the world.
