Bayreuth

基本解釋

GETTING a seat at the annual Bayreuth Festival of Richard Wagner’s operas is about as easy as shaking off a dwarf’s curse: the average waiting time is nine years.
想在一年一度的拜羅伊特瓦格納音樂(lè)節(jié)中得到門票可不是件容易事,等待的時(shí)間和消除矮人身上的詛咒所需日子一樣長(zhǎng):九年。
And indeed Wolfgang directed little of merit himself, though he invited distinguished conductors and directors to Bayreuth—none of whom was allowed to establish a foothold there.
他邀請(qǐng)了許多杰出的指揮家和導(dǎo)演，但是并不允許他們鎮(zhèn)正在拜羅伊特扎根。
It was Wieland who took over the directorship and, by dispensing with much of the traditional symbolism of Wagnerian production, not only restored Bayreuth's reputation but enhanced it.
最后，維爾蘭繼承了導(dǎo)演事業(yè)，摒棄了傳統(tǒng)的理念，將瓦格納作品煥然一新，鞏固加強(qiáng)了音樂(lè)節(jié)不可撼動(dòng)的地位。

Naturally Wolfgang rejects all talk of a Bayreuth crisis and in one sense he is right.

But more stimulating Wagner productions with casts as good as Bayreuth's are not hard to find these days.
