The Bayreuth Festival German: Bayreuther Festspiele is a music festival held annually in Bayreuth, Germany, at which performances of operas by the 19th-century German composer Richard Wagner are presented. Wagner himself conceived and promoted the idea of a special festival to showcase his own works, in particular his monumental cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen and Parsifal.

It is less extreme than the 1942 and has more energy and passion than the 1954. Schwarzkopf is superb, Edelmann is excellent.

The Ultimate Beethoven Symphony Collection. Nine crucial works. The best recording of each. Beethoven was 29 in 1800, when his First Symphony premiered in Vienna. Though his reputation had been growing, a symphony was a major statement, and this piece exudes the freshness and imagination of a new arrival on the scene. And Bernard Haitink and the London Symphony Orchestra make a warm, graceful case for the piece, with an excitement generated by honest, rich yet crisp playing rather than by exaggerations of speed or volume. ZACHARY WOOLFE. The Fifth. Bayreuth was not the first choice. When Richard Wagner roughly sketched his Festival idea in 1850, his thoughts circled around Zurich or Weimar, and later around Munich. Twenty years passed until, in terms of modern jargon, he googled the name of the Frankish gem Hans Richter had drawn him to the vacant Margravial Opera House of the city of Bayreuth. A year later, the first visit of the town followed, the house proved to be unsuitable for the purpose of the Ring performance, but the city pleased the composer. On 13 August 1876, the first Bayreuth Festival began. The Festival Idea. Symphony No. 125: IV. Presto - Allegro. Beethoven: Symphony No 9 review.

One of the most famous of all recordings of Beethoven's Ninth Symphony is that of the performance conducted by Wilhelm Furtwängler to mark the reopening of the Bayreuth Festspielhaus in 1951, though it's claimed that EMI's recording was made at the rehearsal rather than the concert itself
