Thanks a lot! This is the clue I needed. At least I am able to typeset the
landscape pages and can have following pages in portrait again!

Basically I think, that it could be a good idea, to have a heder beeing
rotatet with the content of the page. Sofar one can include the \chapter[]{}
in the \rotate[]{} command and it is nicely rotated with the rest of the
page.

I will try further.... Thanks for your example!
