    everytime i hear this i think back when i was a child and my grandfather took me to see Excalibur he was so worried i would not sit still. once i heard the movie and saw the opening fight scene, i never moved from my seat and i never made a sound. one of the best memories i have.
    and i was hooked on classical music after this!
    take care

      It is a certain genre of music, and in that genre, it is certainly powerful. But I wouldn't certainly consider him as the greatest composer from Germany. There are many others, some of them greater than Wagner. I like very much this funeral march though. Very impressive.

      I agree, it feels very Nordic in its inspiration. I'm Scandinavian myself and familiar with the Poetic Edda, one of the main sources for the myths of the Volsungs and Siegfried - the connection to a Nordic heritage in this music and in the Ring as a whole has always been clear to me.
      Incidentally, either the opening part of this piece or something quite similar was used just before the announcement on German radio of the death of Adolf Hitler on April 30, 1945. Talk about abuse of an amazing piece of music!

I was hooked, and have been listening to and watching Wagner's work ever since.
