New boss for German cult fest
mainThe spritual home of musical modernism, Donaeschingen, has rather gone to sleep in the 21st century.

She’s Lydia Rilling of the Luxembourg Philharmonic and she’s promising a digital revolution.
Gotta be livelier than Luxembourg.
I may be helpful to remind of the lecture Roger Scruton gave at the festival in 2016 and which irked some of the old garde:
