Recording Data:
Recording: 29th July 1951 at a public performance at the Festpielhaus Bayreuth, Germany
Bavarian Radio recording, broadcast simultaneously internationally
Original Format: analogue mono tape, digitized by Swedish Radio in 24-bit / 96kHz

this is an unabridged concert performance, the opening of the Bayreuth Festival, as broadcast by Bavarian Radio in 1951 and  transmitted internarionally, including by Swedish Radio.
We have chosen to not change anything, no to 'brush up' the sound, not to clean and shorten the pauses or omit audience noises within the music, but to keep the original as it was.
In this way we recreate the feeling of actually sitting in front of an old radio in 1951, listening to this important concert, thus creating a true historical document.
