Busch, Fritz - Scope and content
- Grete Busch writes, “You will fully understand the [shock] which my husband suffered when reading that interview. For the second time he was confronted with a falsification of the historic facts of how Glyndebourne came to life; innumerous other articles of the same kind may have swept newspapers during his long absence from England. Yet it is not even the damage done to his credit but another problem of incomparably higher importance, this is: the good, clean, confident atmosphere that Glyndebourne needs if it shall survive! He-Fritz-needs it as well, because he simply cannot work without it. Believe me-I know him well enough and long enough to know that all his ‘impetus’, his enthusiasm and strength fades, gets lost, once he cannot trust the men, not see friends in them-with whom he collaborates!”
