    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!

    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.

    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?

    • @Immenreiner
      @Immenreiner 3 года назад +2

      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

    • @deejay7581
      @deejay7581 Год назад

      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.

    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
