This never fails to bring a tear to my eyes. Back in the 1930s my father, a church organist, played the Liebestod as his inaugural piece in our local church. Wonderful.
I hate to admit this but I used to listen to this while I was preparing to take a shot of heroin .. It was especially magical when I was really sick and withdrawing .. I would inject just before the crescendo and let the drug and music transform my intense suffering to something akin to dying and going to heaven .. This music IS what injecting heroin feels like . Going on 8 years being clean this year . Just needed to share this .. have a wonderful day everyone . Love from down under ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Good God. I’ve never done heroin but the way you’ve just described the feeling to me…just elicited the most raw burst of emotion I’ve ever felt from somewhere deep within my soul. I just broke the fuck down, no joke. This piece of music, especially from about 4:30 on really sounds to me what heaven would be like. One of my favorite instrumentals. 🖤
this is really really wild bc i literally used to do the same thing and I would cry almost right after bc of just how insane and tragic my life felt at the peak of my addiction-happy we made it through
I know that that is the case, however, I cannot set my mind to hear that properly. Did you notice that it was about lovemaking before knowing it for certain? Is it clear on the melody?
I am stunned. I was just thinking that I owe it to myself to experience some Wagner so I type it into RUclips. Now I guess I will be listening to Wagner often. Strangely powerful music. I will be studying the man himself, too. That is in fact what brought him to my attention today; he was mentioned as a particular type of achiever in a documentary I saw today. I could say more but I want to hear his "Twilight of the Gods" which I see to the right on my screen.
unfortunately studying the man himself is gonna be a bit depressing. He was virulent anti-semite who often attacked the careers of jewish composers like Mendelssohn.
that's not even the worse of him -.- look into the letters from liszt to wagner and vice versa (there is a book with them you can get online for free). he was an asshole.
Wagner and Mendelssohn regarded one another with contempt for stupid reasons. One day Wagner published an essay in which he mocked Mendelssohn by saying that Jews would never reach the level of German art. That's Wagner's anti-semitism. It's a complete joke. The idea that Wagner was a racist dickhead Nazi is a British wartime propaganda lie, basically to pee on superior German music and art.
@jsdf. jkkejk One tries one's best! Seriously, though, NOBODY is scum. Human beings are capable of great idiocy, frightening insanity and mind-boggling wickedness, but even the wickedest among us are not scum. No life is worthless. xx
In music Wagner it's by far the best composer ever, his orchestration technic, harmony, cadences, modulations, melodic "phrases", are almost perfect, another great example is Sigfried Idyll
This song brings me memories, I heard It for the very first time, as I waited for the movie to start in a movie theater in Mexico city back in the 60s, now that I think of it, I find it odd that a movie theater would play classical music as people took their seats and waited for the movie. But I am grateful, for it introduced me to Wagner, and I do find this song emotionally tender which is a departure from the Wagner we all are used to such as Ride of the Valkiries.
Defo. Adagietto is too much for me sometimes. Need to be in right frame of mind. Although sometimes when you let music appear rather than control what ur listening to or when you stumble across something you can be presently surprised. He is one cheeky sod when he wrote that. Waves upon waves of emotion. Cuts right into you. I remember as a youngster hearing about all the sadness's and deaths and I thought ah!!!!
i cant listen to this without imagining that one angel raising their staff and looking at us, for then, a woman to be seen at the distance of a terribly misunderstood scene
A lot of people seem don't understand: you don't make the choice to become a "Wagnerian". Wagner chooses you. You either feel it or you don't. Some people call his music a drug. No. It's a love that never fades away.
That is so absolutely true what you said. My whole life, as a Jew and as an professional musician I didn’t want Wagner to have any kind of impact on me. But one day it just happened…it just reached, no, as you said, it found me and allowed me to stay with it for the rest of my earthly life. Wagners music awoken something in my life and finally touched the deepest core in my eternal soul.
This piece always makes me think of Un Chien Andalou. The bizarre dream state from that film dovetails nicely with this music. (And that weird accordion tune.)
Eines der schönsten Stücke die Wagner je komponiert hat. Traumhaft schöne Bilder noch dazu, und punktgenau synchron. Danke fürs Zusammenstellen und Hochladen, sehr gut gemacht! One of the most extraordinary pieces that Wagner ever composed. Overwhelmingly beautiful pictures, and on-the-spot syncron. Thank you for sampling and uploading, very well done, excellent work!
Beyond Tristan and Isolde, think of Romeo and Juliet, where before Shakespeare "romance had not even been viewed as a worthy topic for tragedy" (Wikipedia). As I recall this piece was used in the movie Mayerling (1968) starring Omar Sharif and Catherine Deneuve, but in this case the tragedy was that Sharif's royal commitments precluded his marriage to Deneuve. Thank you so much for the exceptional visual media that brightened with each musical crescendo, perfectly reflecting the mood.
Sex is the furthest thing from my mind when I hear this. Same goes for great pop "love songs". Something far above anything to do with loins, however cathartic or spiritual,
@@mrlopez-pz7pu Bernstein calls this part "orgasmic" too in his sixth Norton Lecture, due to its swelling up and down. Furthermore there's a natural connection between sexual ecstasy and an experience to call cathartic, as it solves an inner knot you might feel, a constant problem you're barely aware of but that can strike here and there - like dirty hands, that don't cause any pain or stuff but at some point prevent you from touching or using everything the way you'd like until those hands are clean and you are rid of a latent obstacle. Since you can't have sex alone but do it together with somebody this also trenscends your own existence, making it somewhat spiritual, too. So there's no opposition, actually.
Lara Tyler He might not have been very nice but my god - the music, the music. I first heard this in 2 sections in different times and places and then heard the actual full piece on radio and noticed the parts were from the same piece. I was so f***** ecstatic as I desperately wanted to find out what the piece was. Both times I was blown away and knew I was in love with it right from the get go. It gave me the otherworldly shiver of discovering something new that I knew was just so right and in a strange way it didn't feel new because it's been around for years but I didn't know because it was the first time for me that my ears had heard it. For me this is the ultimate tear jerker and sometimes it's too much to listen to because it's so emotionally stirring.
It's a sign. You make little discoveries along the way and then put the pieces together. For me I got the notion 'hey listen to this' like it was something important not to be missed.
I'm not sure if many noticed this important, and sublime feature: at 7:08, the motif that plays is essentially the same as the one that opens the entire opera (at about 0:10 in the prelude). When it first plays in the prelude, the context is atonal, jagged and discordant, not belonging to a defined key. But here, the same theme is played in a beautifully tonal context, and indeed becomes the final, beautiful, tonal cadence of the piece. Such genius - to take the same melody, but harmonize it in the most tear-jerkingly beautiful way.
Whether you like Joan Crawford or not, this was used in the film 'Humoresque'. Tristan and Isolde (in the film) was conducted by Max Steiner. He kept everything intact. It was a very powerful ending to a tragic fate. The entire film is music. Beautiful. This brought me here and still makes me cry. Got to catch the film if not just for the end.
Wagner wrote Tristan und Isolde to have the themes never quite resolve, after all the story of Tristan und Isolde IS about two people who fall in love, but it is forbidden to them. Their love remains un-requited, and the absolute genius of Wagner is, because it's unrequited love, the themes always come oh-so-close to resolving, but they never do... Genius.
Great visuals for the most heavenly piece of music ever written. Perfect! The only way to make it better would be with a moving picture video; For instance a bird ever climbing in altitude and finally soaring over a mountain, or a mountainous wave, and then fading into the glorious golden distance at the end. Ahhh!
From Wikipedia - Liebestod means Love Death in German (Liebe, to love and Tod, death) although this may be perhaps too literal a translation for Wagner's supremely beautiful opera. In this case an all emcompassing love is only and finally consummated with death or after death, as if the mortal body can not survive such complete and total Joy and Ecstasy. Throughout the piece one hears the repeated crescendo rising to even greater heights..... finally, culminating in peace and tranquility.
How is it possible The nation of then..full with the greatest artist..have have dragged them down.. for what? 1938/1945…blessings all the one’s who’s not wanted to be involved with the insanity then 😢

my soul left my body. my god, this is the most beautifully intense, yet sublime piece i’ve ever listened too.
Wagner's masterpiece ✨️ no words to describe this music just feelings...!
Simply the most beautiful piece of music I have ever heard. Perfection; Wagner wrote the music........ACT OF TRUE & PURE LOVE. GENIUS.

I do this to but on psychedelics I drop and listen to music feels heavenly while I’m tripping it’s amazing. Congrats on being sober.
Brings tears to my eyes..., for no reason.., other than the sheer beauty of it.
Wagner was so obviously a mystic whose phantasm took flesh in the most radiant tone poems.
Traumhaft zum Weinen schön ❤
I'M IN PARADISE, this is my soul music. I love you Wagner forever.
YOu gaiy my frind
HOW DOES HE AVERT ALL THESE CADENCES AND STILL MAKE IT SOUND SO GOOD
What an absolute genius.
Throw Away had mozart heard this, he would have had a heart attack!
I call it measured decadence. Abbado used to be very good at this!
The entire opera is littered with unfinished cadences. It's not until the liebestod that these cadences are resolved. It's nuts.
@@neeltheother2342 but works perfectly to really bring the entire story to one incredible climax! What a master.
bat
Such a moving piece. I hear love and triumph and a kind of release.
MUSIC FROM HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The absolutely soul-stirring piece combined with perfectly timed images equals goosebumps of the highest order. Very well done.
Ich weine gerade. I am crying.
Weinst du noch?
Wagner is never too heavy. His music was and is perfect.
Everytime it gives me goosebumps..makes me feel the full scene...feeling sad, angose., like crying, peaceful.. such a great part from Wagner 👏
This is lovemaking, sublimely beautiful and thrilling. The music grows and expands into an orgasmic climax.
I know that that is the case, however, I cannot set my mind to hear that properly. Did you notice that it was about lovemaking before knowing it for certain? Is it clear on the melody?
Extreme beauty, beauty, beauty... That takes us to Heaven....

THE most beautiful music ever written, along with the Mahler addagietto from his 5th, and balcony scene by Prokofiev from R&J
And the finale to Swan Lake

Although sometimes when you let music appear rather than control what ur listening to or when you stumble across something you can be presently surprised. He is one cheeky sod when he wrote that. Waves upon waves of emotion. Cuts right into you.

5:00-7:00 reminds me of someone that’s far away from me right now....beautiful piece of music
Extreme perfection and beauty, takes me to Paradise, every time I listen to this.
Richard Wagner was the master.
NO Erwin wagner is better you dumb
This music should be listened to without any political thoughts in mind. It's just heavenly!
It's irresponsible to ignore Wagner's anti-Semitism. Pretending that racists are incapable of making beautiful music lacks nuance. Be better.
It’s about true music, nothing else. No one cares about anyone’s political opinions

The most sublime plagal-cadence in Western Music!
Indeed it is .........................
Incredibly beautiful !
Great pictures to set off the expansive and highly charged emotional mood of this most fabulous of Wagner's pieces!
A lot of people seem don't understand: you don't make the choice to become a "Wagnerian". Wagner chooses you. You either feel it or you don't. Some people call his music a drug. No. It's a love that never fades away.

for listening wagner's music, there is only one condition: you must be able to listen with yout heart and not your ears.

Beautifully appropriate pictures to compliment intensely beautiful music.
This piece always makes me think of Un Chien Andalou. The bizarre dream state from that film dovetails nicely with this music. (And that weird accordion tune.)
Until I hear something else that fits the bill, this is still the most beautiful piece of music that I have ever heard.
Lohengrin prelude (to act 1)?
The finale of Swan Lake is better my friend
@@dreamangus1505 I love that too. Swan Lake is one of my favorites.
The ending of Parsifal!

4:12: Lovemaking music
I've been saying this forever. Orgasmic music
Sex is the furthest thing from my mind when I hear this. Same goes for great pop "love songs". Something far above anything to do with loins, however cathartic or spiritual,
Liszt’s second liebestraume is also love making music
@@mrlopez-pz7pu This is very clearly a musical representation of a sexual experience gradually building to climax

A masterpiece and a prescient opera of what is going to happen to Germany in the near future, sadly.
prelude to Armageddon
The most sensuous eight minutes in the entire history of Western Music.
This isn’t western music it’s German music
Maybe. Wagner's "Siegfried's Death and Funeral March" and Mahler's "9th Symphony, 4th movement" would come close.
The finale of Swan Lake is better
