Diary Entry of April 27, 1875

Overview

We returned to Bayreuth to find the children well and delighted, which lifted our spirits after the journey. Feustel brought odd news and Vienna was said to be fully aligning its opera schedule with R.'s wishes, a triumph that pleased us greatly.

Tuesday, April 27:

In Bayreuth at 8 o’clock, the children at the station, well and full of glee. We were both very sleepy.

In the evening Feustel, who tells us about a curious meeting with Councilor Dufflipp, who was extremely rude to him! ... On the other hand, in Vienna a complete triumph for R.’s views, the opera schedule being adapted to them completely. Much delight in the children.
