Anno Mungen is knowledgeable at the paintings and lifetime of Richard Wagner. As a theater and musicologist, he has been educating on the College of Bayreuth since 2006, the place he heads the Analysis Institute for Musical Theatre. His e-book »From Bayreuth to Auschwitz. Opera – Politics – Violence” used to be revealed through Westend-Verlag.
DIE ZEIT: Mr. Mungen, what did you assume while you heard closing week that the Bayreuth Competition canceled a live performance to commemorate the musicians who have been persecuted and killed through the Nazi regime? The Jewish journalist Michel Friedman used to be intended to offer a speech on this context on July 26, and Christian Thielemann.
