FESTSPIELHAUS V HELLERAU

100%
EN
Teacher and musician Émile Jaques-Dalcroze was provided with ideal conditions for his work in Hellerau near Dresden in 1910. A Festspielhaus had been built for him in the garden city, especially thanks to the entrepreneur Wolf Dohrn. It followed his requirements and offered room not only for his school of rhythm, but also a big theatre. The conception of the building had also been influenced by Adolphe Appia and Alexander von Salzmann. Its modern architecture, authored by Heinrich Tessenow, was, in terms of its style, an early work of functionalism. The Festspielhaus became an international centre for the teaching of rhythm in 1910–1914. It was a source of inspiration, especially in dance, ballet, and pantomime, and significantly influenced the development of the 20th-century theatre.
