- Cesare Siepi sings "Leb wohl, du kühnes herrliches Kind"
from Die Walküre by Richard Wagner
New Jersay State Opera Orchestra
Kenneth Schermerhorn, conductor
25.XI.1967
Cesare Siepi was no stranger to Wagner, having sung Gurnemanz in PARSIFAL at the Met. His recording of Wotan's Farewell and the Magic Fire Music is outstanding.
SIEPI was extraordinary. A voice at once big, wide-ranged and beautiful.
veramente di altissimo livello, non credevo che un cantante italiano potesse interpretare Wotan in modo così splendido
Siepi é un grande cantante, ma canta il Wotan troppo "cantabile" per me - c'è solo una frase che dovrebbe essere cantata: "wer meine Speeresspitze fürchtet, durchschreite das Feuer nie..."
Siepi is my favourite basso. I had never heard him before in Wagner. His German accent is pretty good, and, as always, his diction is admirable. Wonderful singer; off to Amazon now to see if I can find more Wagner from him.
Thanks for this WeicheWotanWeiche.
His German diction is better than that of many German singers - and I'm speaking as someone who's conducted and coached opera in Germany for almost 40 years.
David Campbell it's My Favorite Too! The Most Beautiful Voice that i've ever Heard!!
What a great voice ... AND: you understand every word ...
Il piu grande Basso de tutti i tempi cantando Wotan...sono veramente felice!!!!!!
Carlos Esquivel Veramente!! Il Grande Siepi!
Beautiful! He sounds so warm and velvety.
This is magnificent. Majestic tone and pure Italian legato (in contrast to the ugly barking ofsingers today in this part). There is absolutely nothing unacceptable about his German. Gurnemanz was one of his last roles at the Met.
I agree as a German‼️
Mil Gracias Por Compartir! Una Verdadera Joya!!! La Estaba escuchando con George London y pensé "Sería Genial que Cesare Siepi tuviera una Grabación de esta Hermosa Aria" mil Gracias!!!
No lo conocía en el repertorio alemán, muy bueno!!! Bravoooo, gracias por compartir ❤
WOW WOW WOW WOW GRANDISSIMO SIEPI!!!
Gràcies per oferir-nos aquesta joia.
Amazing beautiful
Cesare Siepi was unquestionably one of the finest bass-baritones of operatic history. I find I enjoy him most from the middle of this excerpt onward. His lyricism, evenness of scale, and tonal beauty serve this music very well. I admit that I prefer others in this role, although I find Siepi unsurpassed in much of the Italian repertoire.
Not a bass-baritone, a bass.
@@Twentythousandlps Yes!
@@Twentythousandlps bass-baritone and basso cantate are just different names for the same thing
@@falkfinkabsolutely.....not. Most of the time they sing same roles but a bass-baritone is expected to be slightly higher with more punch in the top notes whereas basso cantante are more homogenous from bottom to top notes. London is a bass baritone and ridderbusch is a basso cantante for example
"Stick to what you're good at".
Siepi is great but I think he is more suitable for Hunding.
Or Verdi.. 😂
@@tenoremodernotecnicavecchi2151 But definitely not Attila because it's way too high for him.
I don't think Siepi was ideally suitable for hard, brutal characters. I think Wotan is good fit for him, especially in this scene where his heartbreak and love for his daughter should be communicated.
@@revivaljesus But he could sing Boito’s Mefistofele very well.
@@BaroneVitellioScarpia1 Sure, the devil can be smooth and seductive. I think ideally Hunding requires a cold, menacing bass like Neri.
Bravo, ma non è il Wotan che ci si aspetta da un cantante di questo calibro.
Forse con un'orchestra diversa e soprattutto con tempi un po' più lenti dove necessario, le cose sarebbero andate meglio
Bloß nicht noch langsamere Tempi! Diese Aufnahme versöhnt mich mit Wagner. Schade, dass Siepi so wenig von ihm gesungen hat.
L'esecuzione orchestrale un po' sbrigativa e la qualità dell'incisione non rendono giustizia alla splendida voce si Siepi. peccato
Naja, halt Siepis großartige Stimme, aber er versteht weder Wagner ansatzweise noch kann er die deutsche Sprache so aussprechen, dass man irgendwas versteht. Kein Wunder, dass wir nie darüber gehört haben, dass er diese Rolle gesungen hat! - Aber danke für den interessanten Link!
Allo stesso modo si può dire di qualunque tenore tedesco che non capisce niente di Verdi Puccini....per tacere di come pronunciano la lingua Italiana...
@@casaavita E vero! Tu parli da un certo "tenore famoso"? Ho una idea...😀ne conosco uno...🙃
Se allude a JK direi che canta perfettamente in italiano. In realtà io penso che per capire Wagner non occorra essere tedeschi e per capire Verdi essere italiani. Ascolti Fritz Wunderlik cantare Bohème in tedesco....
@@casaavita Hai assolutamente ragione!
JK - sì, se gli dai un microfono! Ma non capisce nemmeno la tradizione canora italiana. Siepi non ha bisogno del microfono, nemmeno con Wagner. Semplicemente non capisce la musica di Wagner e non riesce nemmeno a pronunciare abbastanza il tedesco. Ieri ho sentito Maria Jeritza cantare "Ritorna vincitor" in tedesco. Ho studiato quest'aria io stesso - non l'ho riconosciuta! Terribile...
Ma Fritz Wunderlich - perfetto!
what a strange german accent !!!
Because he is not a German.
C'est pas du Kipnis!Beaucoup plus étroit,bien moins majestueux:La guturalité du timbre sert ici à retrécir,et non à élargir la voix.Correct,tout juste;sans plus.
Comparaison ne vaut pas raison.
Kipnis est la plus belle clef de fa du siècle et spécialisé dans Wagner.
Je trouve que Siepi ici se met en danger dans un rôle inattendu mais propose une interprétation très éloignée des classiques germaniques sans pour autant trahir l'œuvre.
Peut être pas les plus adieux mais je garde pour beaucoup de raisons
Oh, please, Siepi can't definitely sing Wagner, not to mention Wotan, how could he possibly think?
Would you mind explaining why? It would be most generous, I’m very curious! Thanks in advance!
Avui dia, què més voldriem que tenir un cantant com aquest!
Please post Wotan's Farewell as sung by another great basso, Jerry Hines!
