Bonn on the Spree - for the first time after 6 1/2 years meets the plenary of the Bundestag in Berlin, there should be an ordinary working meeting, but the unused 6 1/2 years right of the German Bundestag, to convene the plenary to Berlin, was described by the rulers in East Berlin as a provocation. By spurious interference, they tried to prevent the meeting of the Parliament.
Soviet jet fighter flew over at low altitude the Congress Hall and formed the Berlin population on a hard's picture puzzle. Bundestag President Gerstenmaier said the threats from Pankow: "and they have Not yet once the Bill of law for themselves. I reject it on behalf of the German Bundestag with emphasis. At the same time, ladies and gentlemen, we protest formally against the traffic that the right laid down in international treaties on free access from and to Berlin in doubt drawn, Yes, is hurt by recklessly. "So reprehensible and so brutal it is so little it may do us, ladies and gentlemen, discourage, to do what is a senses mature expression of our right and our duty, for throughout Germany, I say for all over Germany, the word again."

Info: Poland: Soviets renew visited the patrons of Pankow of the people's Republic of Poland in Warsaw of the friendship and smiles werbenden mutual assistance pact with the expression. The Soviet Kossygin and party leader Breschnjew had come to consolidate the loosened bonds of Poland to the Soviet Union for the next 20 years. They signed the friendship and assistance pact in Warsaw again.
The Soviet guests guaranteed the oder/Neiße border and assured the residents of Wrocław, that this city will never again belong to Germany. Holland: Increasing freight transport on the Rhine forces to ducts: several projects of completion, which will continue channeling the Rhine and keep its water through large dams under control approach in Holland. In Amerongen's work, the two Crescent-shaped gates with their wingspan of almost 100 metres will keep the ice-floes in river and help accelerate the growing shipping traffic in the Holland is involved with more than 50%. Alone on the German section of the Rhine, more goods were transported in the previous years, as in the long-haul transport on German roads?

Germany: Blasting on the Saale Bridge: cameras on both sides of the zone border focused these days on a construction site, where at the end of next year one of the rare community of East and West is to be inaugurated. The preparations for the construction of a highway bridge over the Saale near farm - the Federal Republic with 5.5 million financed and by the State-owned construction combine Magdeburg are performed - as well as completed with this tag. The last crumbling arches and pillars were blown up.
The new bridge will save the one-hour detour over the border crossing Töpen Juchhö annually 400,000 motorists.

Bavaria: Vast majority of Franz Josef Strauß at the CSU Party Congress: the National Assembly of the CSU in Munich culminated in the nearly three-hour mammoth unit of the politician at the time referred to most frequently in Germany and ended in an uncontested election. More than 700 delegates applauded their President Franz Josef Strauß. A large majority voted that Franz Josef Strauß should lead the CSU in the next two years. The question where his place will be after the Bundestag election, exhausted today only in a comprehensive catalogue of speculations who is Ho where Henze?

Klaus Halliday in the conversation with the most prominent German composer. -Stormy applause of Opera lovers for his latest work "The young Lord" the Deutsche Oper in Berlinerlebte expected one eagerly premiere. Hans Werner Henze presented his first comic opera "The young Lord."-
Henze found the harmonious combination between Opera buffa and a modern, yet unconventional style. Because 12-tone music, said Henzej is not a means of expression for joy, who succeeded him and his librettist, Ingeborg Bachmann, here as well. Klaus Halliday spoke with the composer: "there are yes no appreciable light-hearted Opera in Germany more since the" Rosenkavalier ", were this is?" -It has stylistic reasons, I don't think anyway, deliberately serene, mainly, because the music had problems after Strauß until today, where the ability to make cheerful things, were not included, - involuntary laughter is caused of the times.
Mr. Henze, your Opera? "The young Lord" plays in the past. Have you used socially critical accents?
There is a socio-critical accented, but is not the main thing in this opera. Actually, the main thing is the pleasure of the fun. Only the young generation of the modern is interested in, or have broad appeal. Are you satisfied with your audience?
I'm starting to be completely satisfied. It is in the larger concert halls, in the operas; and I in some cities, especially in Berlin, in London. in New York, recently won a fair-sized crowd for me. You have written a score for Alain Resnais film "Muriel" for the first time. Would giving same test again, or under what circumstances?
She could tease me then, if they so special goods, the Director here, as in the case of "Muriel", where the Director of the music just wants something special. A normal Sonic backdrop to To write. would not overly concern me."
Hans Werner Henze, born 38 years ago in Gütersloh, is not a dogmatist. His music reveals artistic temperament. Henze knows how to communicate his joy in composing the audience through his music.
And this happens in Henze's comic opera: A young English Lord puts a German town in excitement. Its petty-bourgeois people submissive mimic the eccentric manners of the Lords. The English Lord, so the bitter Pointe, is in truth a - monkey. Hans Werner Henze's folksy, upbeat, and especially at the end of socially critical Opera liked the premieres. Visitors right off the bat. The applause lasted 20 minutes.
