Would you like to share your Bayreuth experience?
Write an article - short or long - (in English) about one or several of your experiences from the Bayreuth Festival. It could be a travel letter, your favourite Bayreuth operatic experience, your worst Bayreuth operatic experience, a production you liked or disliked, a Wahnfried experience - you make the rules, as long as the article is related to the Bayreuth Festival. Short or long? You decide. All contributions will be published on Wagneropera.net.
Those who contributed before 1 December 2009 could win "Bayreuth Backstage" - the fascinating book by Enrico Nawrath and Katharina Wagner - and a winner was drawn from the hat: Bea and Alec Bobotek.
