The correspondence presented here between Carl Orff and the director and artistic director Gunther Rennert provides illuminating insights into the general production process of musical theater in the 1940s to 1970s beyond Orff's work. Brief biographies of the correspondents, an essay on the history of theater, detailed commentary on the letters through footnotes, photos with both protagonists and selected productions as well as numerous, partly facsimile documents on the collaboration between Orff and Rennert enable comprehensive contextualizations.
