Musique sublime ,magnifiquement interprétée !!! Splendide mise en scène !!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ( contrairement à certaines productions actuelles ,complètement ridicules et" déjantées" ,y compris à Bayreuth !!!!) .....
I find productions with guys wearing suits and carrying spears and horns absurd. These are period pieces as to staging in "modern context" is absurd. And horses in offices! seriously?
I have tried hard to like this production - I saw it live and I have it on DVD - but it seems to me to be quite monumentally silly. Every detail is faithfully reproduced from Wagner's first production but it adds up to very little. The characters don't come to life, they are cyphers, the drama it unfolded storybook fashion and I don't know any more about this great work at the end than I did at the beginning. It's the best example I can think of to illustrate why we must always develop new ways of directing these works. I have seen 19 live Ring cycles over the years and this is the only one so far which leaves me cold.
I appreciate your impression of this production. I am surprised you dislike it as compared to newer interpretations. I find the stage setting genius, beautiful and awe inspiring. I too, have seen modern versions of Wagner, one which featured the characters as sort of extraterrestrials as I vaguely recall. Anyway, this version to me is stunning. Hildegard Beherens was commanding, the Water Nymphs swimming in the Rhine in joyful reunion with the return of the gold was a feat of shear beauty. The beautiful nymphs actually looked as though they were in water! Yes, I prefer the traditional, original vision of Wagner himself to the strange "reimagined" sequels we see floating around today.
Hildegard Behrens adorée
Where was Grane?

ワーグナー自身がイメージした舞台って、あるのだろうか。本当に伝えたかったことは、視覚、聴覚な楽しさでなく、ヒューマニティーのついての思慮だった。
@@sumiokuge9118 ワーグナーが書いた台本のト書きに舞台の様子が詳しく書かれていますし、それを画家に描かせたりもしています。
ほとんどの人はワーグナーがイメージしたような舞台が見たいのだ。ワーグナーの楽劇を見飽きて、何か新奇な演出を見たがるようなマニアはごく少数だ。多くの人々にとってこの演出は「こういうのが見たかったんだよ！ありがとう！」と叫びたくなるようなものだ。特にラストは素晴らしい。
予算的な問題があるんだわ。忠実な演出にはとにかく金がかかる。今みたいにクラシック全体が買い叩かれている現状では、そう簡単にいかない。1980年代と今とではわけが違う

Magnifique mise en scène !
ベーレンスは、イゾルデのほうが好きですね
Great. I remember the Met before Levine got there. Stupid that something he did years ago should force his recognition.

Now that’s how you stage that final scene
