Bayreuth Opening Night Dutchman to be telecast

In a lengthy interview in ms-web.de Katharina Wagner announced that the opening of the 2013 Bayreuther Festspiele will be telecast in the same fashion as this year’s Parsifal. The much lauded Stefan Herheim production of Parsifal was broadcast live on Arte.tv in Europe and live in Kino (cinema) HD in over 100 theaters in Germany.

The link is here – the interview is in German, but you can cut/paste the link to translate.google.com and get a rough translation of the interview. Maybe the North America will be included this time – at least the internet transmission.
