Deutsch: - 2126 - ...Ein Nachmittagskonzert im Tivoligarten, Hanover (Hannover), Deutschland
English: - 2126 - An Afternoon Concert, Tivoli Beer Garden, Hanover, Germany. ... This is the afternoon scene familiar to all travellers in any part of Germany. To be sure the beverage ist not everywhere the same. In the Rhine country the same kind of a garden might furnish only the wines of the region, and leave the stranger who does not know the ways of the place, and venture to ask for beer, with the uncomfortable feeling that he has betrayed his ignorance. But at least he has learned the useful lesson that United Germany is not a complete unit after all, when it comes to these liquid aids to digestion. Of an afternoon, it is true, differences between the Rhineland and the rest of Germany fade away in the presence of the universal coffee habit. It is the women's hour too, and the choicest music is now to be heard. Men are not waiting in such a gathering, but they are usually to be found in the family groups. The cup of coffe, which would be taken at home in bad weather, is here enjoyed by the whole family together. Cakes and coffee, however, are only the excuse for a pleasure which needs none, - that of gathering in a place where friends are sure to be met, and many matters discussed which do not have much to do with the musical programme. The leading actors and singers, ant other well-known people, are always to be seen here among their admirers, and are glad for the time to be simple citizens, enyoying the open air, and whatever else is to be enjoyed. Not that they escape the public eye, for they are universally known and incessantly talked about over the tables far and near. But besides the notables of the stage, or the army, or public life, there are children and babies in go-carts, to add variety to the scene.
