It can be seen that the quality of the Germans' work is serious about everything and has extremely high requirements, so the quality can stand the test. ”

"Due to the limited time, the beam bridge is far away, we can't run over every bridge, so I will first introduce these few very representative bridges, and I will add the introduction when the scenic spots meet the bridges in the future. ”

"I'll tell you about the other aspects, but you never saw a traffic jam in Hamburg, Germany, did you notice?" Robin asked with a smile.

Qu Lihua remembered, "Yes, Hamburg, Germany is also a big city in Germany, why is the traffic management so good?"

Robin said: "This is not only the credit of the bridge, but also thanks to the bus station, this word, you must sound very new, bus station, hahaha, yes, this is the characteristics of Hamburg, Germany, you can take the bus station, later, I will take you to experience it, I feel that you must take the land means of transportation is different." ”

"In Hamburg, which is full of water networks, you can get to any corner by steamboat as much as the metro, and locals often take it to work or go shopping, and you can also visit attractions such as St. Michael's Church and Germany's oldest opera house. ”

"I'm going to take you to see the old German opera house later, and the European opera is also very historical, the Italian opera is very famous, and the Russian, French, and German operas are all very famous, you can experience it. ”

"Come, let's go, I'll take you on a bus and experience what it's like to be on the waterway!"

Robin took everyone to the steamboat, which was very new to Qu Lihua, she had never taken a steamboat before, this was the first time, with a sense of freshness, there were still a lot of Hamburgers on the steamboat, and they were all very friendly.

Germans are still very good to the Chinese, very friendly, smile and nod when they meet, and are not shy and shy when they see the camera, and they will wave hello.

When you come to Hamburg, you will be enchanted by the beauty of the city, and if you walk through the city, you will not feel that the city is divided by a river or a lake.

Qu Lihua sat on the steamboat, felt very fresh, felt that with the ups and downs of the waves, there were some ups and downs, but nothing else, she did not have the phenomenon of seasickness, she was still very adaptable, through the glass window of the steamboat, she could also watch the scenery on the water from a distance, it was really beautiful.

The bridges that span the water, they connect the whole city like a ribbon, and the number of bridges in Hamburg is even more than that of Venice and Amsterdam combined, with thousands of bridges, which is the record of the city with the most bridges in the world, and it is also a place of pride for Hamburg, Germany.

Because it is a "water city", it has a unique style, and you can't see such scenery in other land cities, so you feel that this city is unique.

When they reached their destination, Robin took everyone down, and Robin began to introduce them.

"Hamburg is also very famous in the field of opera, and the first public opera house in Germany was opened in Hamburg in 1678, when the arts-loving Hamburgers demanded an opera house open to all, not just the aristocracy, which was quite remarkable. ”

"Hamburg is the birthplace of the great German composers Mendelssohn and Brahms, and it has a strong musical tradition and roots in German culture. ”

"At the beginning of the 17th century, opera was performed in all the major cities of Germany, but mainly Italian opera was staged, with the exception of Hamburg, which was considered the new civic cultural center of Germany in the 17th century, which produced German opera. ”

In 1678, Reinken built an opera house open to the public in Hamburg, Germany, which was the Hamburg State Opera, and on the day of its inauguration, the first opera staged was "Adam and Eve" by the national composer Taylor, based on the biblical story. ”

In 1694, Cuser became the conductor of the Hamburg State Opera, one of the oldest opera houses in Europe, and the earliest non-court theater opera house in Germany, so I took you to this opera house to see, it is still very representative. ”

"This opera house is beautiful!" Qu Lihua was very happy, after listening to Robin introduce some of the history of German opera, which can help her better understand the history of German opera.

"Robin, can you tell us about any plays going on at this opera house?"

Robin smiled and nodded, "Yes, but I still have to start with the past, or the history of this opera house, so that you can better understand that the Hamburg State Anthem is closely related to the culture and religion of the German citizens, and there was a period when this theater staged some operas based on mythological stories and was strongly opposed by the church, so that the theater had to stop performing." After fierce debates, the staging of operas with various themes was finally guaranteed, and the theater returned to its former prosperity. ”

"The golden age of the Hamburg Opera House was between 1695 and 1706, when the musical director was Kaiser, who made it one of the best in Germany. ”

In order to meet the needs of the Hamburg State Opera, Kaisel personally wrote more than 100 operas for the opera house, which made great contributions to the heyday of the Hamburg State Opera. During this period, composers such as Taylorman and Handel also participated. ”

In 1738, a year before Kaiser's death, the Hamburg State Opera had to stop its normal performances under the influence of the powerful Italian opera that had swept all over Europe, and the German national opera tradition founded by the Hamburg State Opera was gradually declining and replaced by Italian opera. ”

"As a German, I also feel a little regretful, but if you go to enjoy Italian opera again, you will find that during the Renaissance, Italian opera did have their advantages, at that time, it was very popular, which is equivalent to our current pop songs are so popular, people almost chase Italian opera, and feel that their singing is more loud and tasteful, which is a trend and the trend at that time. ”

In the following century, the Hamburg Opera House took a back seat among all the German opera houses, and opera also flourished from Germany, and was gradually surpassed by Italy, and people would also chase the popular repertoire at that time. ”

"Since then, Italian opera has been a kind of icon, until now when it comes to Italian opera, people still remember it vividly, and when they go to Italy, they still have to listen to opera, which is very distinctive and representative. ”
