The ending from this has been stuck in my head for days. It's incredible.
"But quite apart from the hypnotist and fresco painter Wagner, there is another Wagner who lays aside small gems, our greatest melancholiac in music full of glances, tendernesses and comforting words in which no one has anticipated, the master of tones of a heavy hearted and drowsy happiness"
Nietzsche
greendrake100 where does he write this?
@@timotheuspeter734 -- I don't know. They were tight friends for years...but then Nietzsche bailed on account of anti-semitism. Greetings from San Agustinillo!
It makes sense to me that one self-obsessed megalomaniac would admire another. Yes, this music is "beautiful", but playing through the score and then listening to it, part of me can't help feel a forced beauty, a very self-aware construction of beauty, a sort of emotional manipulation with tried tricks, like a leap of a diminished fifth played by the heart-wrenching cellos, or the typical Wagner deceptive cadence, or violins high up in the stratosphere with that rhythm of eighth notes alternating with triplets, or a sudden fortissimo outburst in the strings, labeled "ausdrucksvoll" (expressive)- a technique Bruckner picked up in his own emotional manipulation. This is music that screams, "I am great, I am moving", and that conscious effort excludes the true soul of a masterpiece for me. There is an honesty, a purity, that is lacking. If I dare say it, there is something very "masculine" about the tenderness. I feel this often in Wagner, and all the time in Bruckner. Wagner was jealous of Beethoven's greatness- Beethoven who never set out to be "great", only to write the music that was in him, to do all that his talent commanded of him- and he set out constructing his own.
@@labemolmineur -- Hmmmm....Then I strongly suggest you avoid hearing the Die Meistersinger First Act Vorspiel....and also those parts in Respighi where he adumbrates fanfares of arriving Roman Legions.
@@labemolmineur this is the greatest piece of nonsense I have ever read.
You criticize Wagner's "forced" grandiosity, while you write an inelegant wall of text.
You should listen to an opera of his in real life, recordings never come close to it, certainly not if listened to on RUclips. I am convinced your opinion would change if you gave it a chance.
Sorry for being blunt.
I hear that first minute in my head over and over these days...
The minute 5:00 gives me goose bumps.
Happy Birthday to Richard Wagner REST IN POWER Blessings and Hugs 💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

You're welcome, have a nice day too!
Hermoso fragmento de esta gran opera. No se si a ustedes les pasa, o no, pero en los acordes finales, siento como se me estremece todo el cuerpo. Pareciera como si esas dulces notas, me revelaran, con su sutil luz, un profundo misterio yacente en la oscuridad.
that chord at 5:57 is really heartbreaking (that reminds some of those really dissonant chord in the finale of tchaikovsky 6)

Very similar to Mozart's adagio in fugue.
