„Kunde gewänn' ich des gern“
Richard-Wagner-Scholarship Foundation
The foundation aims to promote and deepen the Bayreuth Festival concept.
To achieve this goal, it enables talented aspiring musicians, singers or other stage-professionals, who may be considered as young talents for the Bayreuth Festival orchestra or stage, to attend several performances of the Bayreuth Festival and thus to directly comprehend Richard Wagner's revolutionary festival idea.
Today it is primarily the worldwide Richard Wagner Associations, which are members of the Richard Wagner Verband International, and the Society of Friends of Bayreuth that provide the Richard Wagner Scholarship Foundation with the necessary funds.
In addition, there are further donations and endowments from committed patrons and private sponsors who support the scholarship foundation regularly and unselfishly.
