    I weep uncontrollably every time I hear the Final Trio from Der Rosenkavalier. Every . . . single . . . time. One of the most beautiful pieces of music ever written. Some time ago I was talking to a friend about the Final Trio and I was tearing up just thinking about it.

    I keep coming back to Fleming's B-natural at 3:33. What a truly spectacular and full-bodied sound. Given the compositional texture, I imagine Strauss intended that note to pop out "amidst the fray" in the climax (Sophie sings the B-natural a measure earlier and then the Marschallin's generally heftier voice picks it up, singing above Sophie's G#). As a long-time lover of this trio (like many reading this) I've listened to many recordings--all different, all bringing different aspects of beauty. But nothing quite parallels Fleming's B-natural here. It's really just remarkable.

      @rogerknox9147 7 лет назад +16

      Re: "the origin . . . of this pure gold:" From years of composing and music analysis I can say there many levels to consider in great opera. For example, where Sophie and Octavian embrace (4:52 ) after the Marschallin's departure, there is an amazing, unexpected orchestral sound and harmony (technically a G major chord in second inversion). It has a sense of expansiveness, of a new vista -- a second inversion chord has the fifth rather than the more stable root note in the bass (lowest part). Strauss is a master of intricate inner voice motion, which prolongs this single chord for a very long time! Doesn't that fit perfectly the expression of a new, young love?

      Yes, Tosca, La Traviata, Eugene Onegin, Il Trovatore and probably many others. I guess you're right that it's in the top moments but there's uncountably finite amount of those moments and they are all divine in their own ways. These moments also depend massively on who the singers are.

      The whole Strauss offers moments like this. The duet between Arabella and Zdenka might be interesting ("Aber der Richtige..."), the final scene of "Elektra" and since you seem to be affected by the wonderful poison Strauss could pour into our veins, just give it a try and maybe listen to a whole opera. Each one is different but they have the same in common: Wonderful parts for sopranos

    stunningly sung. The production and costumes, are, of course, utterly out-of time but I guess it was all the rage 50 years ago. The diction of Fleming is a bit odd and things are very difficult to understand. But well, that's a typical issue with non-native speakers anyway and, at least for this part, probably doesn't really diminish the performance.
