Richard Wagner Festspiele - Applause for Roberto Blanco in Bayreuth
Schlagger star Roberto Blanco (87) was welcomed by the audience with applause at the red carpet of the Bayreuth Festivals' opening. He appeared with his musician colleague Patrick Lindner and the Bavarian Minister-President Markus Söder (CSU) in front of the facade of the Festspielhaus. Actress Margarita Broich ("Tatort"), actor Francis Fulton-Smith ("Familie Dr. Kleist"), and TV chef Alexander Herrmann, who lives nearby in Wirsberg, were also present at the traditional procession of prominences.
Söder could welcome his Minister-President colleague from Saxony-Anhalt, Reiner Haseloff (CDU), to the most important opera event in Germany and almost the entire Bavarian cabinet. Surprisingly, federal politics were scarce in attendance - only Culture Minister Claudia Roth (Greens) came to the opening. The Richard Wagner-Festspiele are being opened this year with a new production of "Tristan and Isolde".
