Diese Musik ist unsagbar großartig und hehr, wenn ich mich so ausdrücken darf. Was für ein unwahrscheinlicher Künstler der Musik Wagner doch war!! Keiner hat ihm das jemals nachgemacht, was mich betrifft. Vielen Dank und LG aus Montréal, Qc, Canada
Good Lord, that Bayreuth sound! So full and rich! You can hear every note, every strand of the texture, yet simultaneously it somehow all coalesces into a huge, glorious whole. My head is about to explode!
And think of this: it was written by Wagner from 1848-1874 ... What a genius of his time. Think of other composers at this time. Wagner was truly more than human!
This is a powerful performance that describes the myth of the destruction of the Gods in a final battle with the forces of evil as a cataclyismic downfall like the apocalypse of a regime or an institution. Great interpretation.
Die zeitgenössischen Kritiker Richard Wagners haben doch in diesen einem Recht gehabt: Daß seine war keine Musik, wie man sie meinte, nein! Weil es hoch über die höchste Musik gibt die Götter - und Richard Wagner!!!
Musique sublime !!! .... Le dernier "Leitmotiv " entendu à la fin du " Ring " est "La Rédemption par l 'Amour " , qui "résume" ( façon de parler ) l'ensemble de l'oeuvre du maître de Bayreuth !!!! Génial Wagner !!!!
@@kenandigrazia13 well...it isn't the end. The end of the god's, yes- but now it's on the humans to decide over their own life...that's what Wagner expresses
Ah the Bayreuth Festival where they perform every Wagner opera back to back on a multiple day festival. It takes some level of masochism to sit through each and every one of Wagner's works.
Why oh why do I have the sentiment that what we are experiencing right now is close to the Götterdämmerung - or Ragnarok, the sack of Rome, the Fall of Byzantium or Oswald Spengler's "Untergang des Abendlandes?" The last three decades I've felt like I am like Stefan Zweig writing "Die Welt von Gestern" and remembering a glorious past that's long gone, looking at present day society with feelings of depression and alienation. Wagner has given a symphonic voice to this desperation. Just like the painting depicted in the video. Who is the painter if I may ask?
this is not universal culture. this is specific culture and you should be very proud that you live on a planet where something like this was possible. no more. no more will anything be created that isn't with the lowest common denominator in mind. as the mass of humanity appropriates more power for themselves this will fade to time.
Music of GOD for certain!!! Good overcoming Evil for certain -- Good ALWAYS overcomes Evil -- it may take time, but Good has to overcome Evil. We as humans have NO choice in the matter. Period!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Please keep in mind that recording is from 1955! It was the first stereo recording of the complete RING. It was made by Decca using the legendary Deccatree setup. Maybe the best setup to fight with the unique acoustic in Bayreuth which is anything else than ideal for recordings. For this it‘s a perfect recording, there are many newer records which sound much worse. And we have to accept Wagners concept of a „wall of sound“ which he prefered over a detailed hearability
Keilberth was a regular at the Bayreuth Festival in the early 1950s, with complete Wagner Ring Cycles from 1952, 1953 and 1955, as well as a well-regarded recording of Die Walküre from 1954 in which Martha Mödl, perhaps the greatest Wagnerian actress and tragedian of her time, sang her only recorded Sieglinde. He made the first stereo recording of the Ring Cycle in 1955, as well as a so-called "second cycle" with Mödl, rather than Astrid Varnay, as Brünnhilde. He died in Munich - whilst conducting a performance of Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde.
On peut effectivement voire ça comme ça (comme le levé du jour de Greig) naissance), mais je pense à une mort d'occident et à une REnaissance possible c'est tout le GENIE DE WAGNER.
As Rossini said, "Gioachino Rossini, who said "Wagner has wonderful moments, and dreadful quarters of an hour." Tchaikovsky said at the end of a performance he attended he felt like he had been leet out of prison. Richard just loved to compose his Gesamtkunstwerken wearing his silk panties, about the redemptive love of WOMAN, adultery, incest, pseudo-Christianity, schmatlz, but lush. The late Tutor of my college at the university of in England said, "At the end you feel as if someone was trying to pull the wool over your eyes." He denounced Meyerbeer and his 'Jewish music", who was instrumental at getting Wag his first important post at the Royal Court in Dresden.You can read about Wagner and other German, Russian, American, French, Austrian and English nutjobs and illusionists in The Religious Revolution: The Birth of Modern Spirituality, 1848-1898 by Dominic Green | Apr 19, 2022
I am happy that King Ludwig of Bavaria motivated and paid Wagner so that WE have today the brilliants Genius music.

Als ein Pole, finde ich diese Musik einfach aus Himmel. Gott sei Dank.
the last 45 seconds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Tears flow every time!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
At 2:53 I see the gloom of the fall of Valhalla, switching to the joy of the ring being returned to the Rhine.
This will be played at the conclusion of my funeral service.
Nothing less. The opening will be "Les préludes" or something similar easy-listening? ;-)
@@Loretta2004 Correct. Thank you - Thumbs up

Especially remarkable because, year after year, these are "pick-up" players who somehow meld each summer into a seamless flow.
Oh, this music...It is written by God, not by a human. And Richard Wagner was more than human. I always feel so good after hearing Gotterdammerung.
I agree, Wagner was the God of Music
Wunderbar!!!!!
It makes me feel superhuman
And think of this: it was written by Wagner from 1848-1874 ... What a genius of his time. Think of other composers at this time. Wagner was truly more than human!
As Woody Allen said, hearing Wagner makes him want to conquer Poland.😂
Se il mondo finisse così, ci sarebbe ancora della bellezza

RAGNARÖK IS COMING
This was played on the eve of Germany's surrender during WWII. I wonder what the American version would be? "The End" by The Doors?
Wow! What you said!!!!!❤
Soul-stirring masterpiece by a man inspired by the devine. An unparalleled genius.
Capolavoro di musica...lascia senza parole....
omg - jaw-dropping sound quality and breath-taking emotional power and performance perfection ! sooooo many thanks for bringing this to YT !
I love it too! Glad you appreciate it.

Keilberth was one of the great Wagnerian conductors.
this is from another world! 💕
It truly is!!!
Que belleza,Sublime,apoteósico,indescriptible ❤
Musique sublime !!! .... Le dernier "Leitmotiv " entendu à la fin du " Ring " est "La Rédemption par l 'Amour " , qui "résume" ( façon de parler ) l'ensemble de l'oeuvre du maître de Bayreuth !!!! Génial Wagner !!!!
Amazing Wagner. Unbelievable!
Now THAT is how you end a 15-hour piece!!!
Truly!
This music truly symbolizes the apocalypse
The armagheddon exactly, apocalipse means revelation not the end of the world. It is ragnarok, armagheddon, ecpirosis ...
This is the music of the Second Coming and Rapture

La música maravillosa de Richard Wagenr en su Tetralogía. Una escultural obra . Una de mis preferidas.
Wunderbar!
Wunberbar!!!

Thank you for sharing this magnificent post!
BEST finale ever
For me Beethoven and Wagner were inspired by the gods !
and Mahler too.
Thank God for Beethoven , Thank Wagner for God..... !
I also believe it. Beautifully tragical.
And Liszt
From 3:00 I start crying without ceasing

And now, back to the beginning with "Rheingold". Over and over and over again.
This was last piece performed by Berlin Philharmonic prior Soviet invasion
He had a very high opinion of himself this is for sure.
Which is why he wrote such wonderful music....
Is great to have confidence and be a little arrogant at times.
He is the best, and he knew it :)
We can't have it any more German, can we?
