生為台灣閩南人 熱愛河洛話 我的根

Maravilloso, magnífico, muy bien trabajo 😮😮😮😮😅

If only the entire Ring was available in this kind of format.

The whole of the Ring Cycle and its techniques, orchestration, leitmotifs, the lot have provided a colossal influence on the development and history of Western Classical Music and we have to appreciate it, even though its composer's ethical and political opinions have a lot to answer for. This is the dilemma of appreciating his music. Honestly, it does make me cry when I listen to it... not only because of the amazing music, but also because I have to question, "why did it have to be written by such a horrible man?"

As a fan of Gotterdammerung and it's it's leitmotivs and not being Chinese: I've looked at five Chinese characters that denote "Twilight of the Gods" and the five that denote "Power of the Gods"; noticed the 1st three of each are identical and the last two aren't, meaning "Twilight" is a two character Chinese word. Below both is an oblique type version of Twilight of the Gods in Chinese as it denotes (inversion of) Twilight of the Gods. The two characters that denote power are also seen in oblique font in (aka Power of the Ring) along with "of the Ring". Wagner's Gotterdammerung is so powerful: it's teaching me Chinese!😆 Fun fact (and as an aside): In old German the word dammert is the verb twilight, and dammerung is the noun twilight. In English: there is only one version of the word twilight. In both languages it doesn't denote the difference between dawn and dusk, hence its magic in Gotterdammerung; in fact: all of Der Ring des Nibelungen.

Únicamente queda llorar... maravilloso.

Incredible! Thank you for this!

👏

The translation is really top-tier. It manages to capture the archaic language that Wagner uses really well. But you kind of missed the visualisation of the magic fire going on in the strings as the Valhal theme blasts. Kind of important considering that it is just in the process of burning to ashes.

this is freaking brilliant! So glad i found this- i can just play for my class! Thank you!

Im showing this to my friends.

Please do more of this

Great job. Thank you very much.

Eu conheço o motivo da transformação pelo nome de redenção pelo amor.

This video is amazing! Thank you so very much!!

Fantastic video, please do more like this, there are so many Wagner lovers awaiting such things and so many wonderful scenes in the Ring to be explained.

thank you

Thank you so very much!

One of the most outstanding endings ever written in music. Thank you very much for this analysis video.

御美事!

It's hard to express my gratitude for your work with words, but I'll try: thank you so much!!

Nice video. I’m waiting for the part III

Is there anything left to be said after this delightful music?

蘇幕遮-周邦彥 Tô Mạc Già - Chu Bang Ngạn Liệu trầm hương, Tiêu nhục thử. Điểu tước hô tình, Xâm hiểu khuy diêm ngữ. Diệp thượng sơ dương can túc vũ, Thủy diện thanh viên, Nhất nhất phong hà cử. Cố hương dao, Hà nhật khứ. Gia trú Ngô môn, Cửu tác Trường An lữ. Ngũ nguyệt ngư lang tương ức phủ. Tiểu tiếp khinh châu, Mộng nhập phù dung phố.

Humanity’s greatest creation. Will anyone ever best Wagner?

跑 还是一个弹舌音，哈哈😊

在知乎上琢磨中古音的时候看到你们设计的切韵拼音方案，油管上又推荐给我你的频道，发现竟然也是音乐人？😺

2:44 is clearly referencing "Oh hehrstes Wunder" from the Walküre, which I guess is not a distinct leitmotif, yet still one of the most powerful ones imho.

Really refreshed by this amazing piece and this wonderful visualization work. Let the war be burnt out and gone in the fire as is the crime of the ring. May the purification and peace be with Ukraine.

A lot going on there...

when you're drunk

Excellente réalisation , notamment concernant le génial emploi des " leitmotive" !!!! ( Pourquoi celui de "La rédemption par l'amour " est -il nommé "transformation " ??????!!!!!!!

I love you for doing this.

Great visualization! Thanks a lot! The moment that the brass section plays the Valhalla-motif in a different measure than the rest of the orchestra, fantastic!

When I first started to learn about the Ring leitmotivs, I remember what is called the Transformation leitmotiv was called Redemption Through Love...I like the idea of combining the idea between both names, the theme is first sung by Sieglinde in Act 3 of Die Walkurie when she first learns she will have a son and decides she wants to live and not die.

I didn’t know how it happend but I started to cry. It was so beautiful how he brought things together and went from strong melody’s to a beautiful light breathtaking one. Amazing

1:30 Ride of the Valkyries

胡说八道，闽南语最接近中古音，相比之下，北方话更像是外语。

要研究中古漢語,想知道中古時期的發音,其實很簡單,只要懂韻書就是了.所謂韻書,就是專講發音的書籍,早在隋唐時代就有唐韻一書,宋朝有廣韻,元朝及明朝也都有,但全是唐韻的後繼增修版.這也 代表了此種中古語言,從隋唐傳到明朝一路以來都沒改變,很明顯的是做為學術語言,因此無法更動.清朝時編撰康熙字典,裡頭的發音也是根據這些韻書.所以,現代人只要查閱康熙字典,就能得知每個字的中古發音.當然,你至少要先懂中國三大古語,河洛語,客語,粵語,才有可能進行研究.只懂普通話的人,就免了.韻書對講普通話的人而言,猶如天書般堅深,根本不知所云.如果你真的很懂河洛語,康熙字典裡的發音對你而言是易如反掌,一點也不難.同時,你也會覺得震驚,原來中古語言一直都存在.從科學角度看,清朝既然還存在的學術語言,也不可能在百餘年後,就消失無蹤吧 !

Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you; this is genius.

Thank You!!!!

Such a great work, thanks ! I will give the link to my students, as we are currently exploring the Ring and the leitmotifs
