One can see how they all are a Team and really are there to serve The Master Composer and his creation and how they don't try to be "edgy" or offer a "different" interpretation or steal the show. They believe this Opera, they're so sincere, I'm in tears...
Superb. Though my favourite "Meistersinger" is Bayreuth 1960 conducted by Knapperstbusch ( the best Eva is and always be Elisabeth Grümmer ). Seeing Windgassen... a dream come true.
Herr Windgassen war der Lieblingssänger meines verstorbenen Ehemannes. Die Stimme ist auch wunderschön. Sie berührt mein Herz. Mein Mann hat diese Arie auch immer gesungen. Danke für's Herunterladen.
Indeed-and the wonder of it . My favourite performance of M/S is the Bayreuth 1961 conducted by Josef Krips. We simply do not performances, productions, and singers and conductors like this any more.
I don't think that this comes from a full performance. I think they only filmed some excerpts for a TV special about that year's Bayreuth. I remember reading about it some time ago. Sorry for answering only 11 years later 😅😂😊
Stolzing tells Sachs his dream of the night before and he writes it down. It's the "first version" of the Preislied Stolzing will sing in the 3rd act and is traditionally called Traumlied.
Good old times of the Golden Era of Opera. With what we have nowadays, it's not surprising that opera is dead. Now we have AWFUL singers with very tiny voices that are always HUGELY AMPLIFIED, crazy conductors that think they're Divas and AWFUL staging.
You have really no idea what it means to sing Wagner in the right way. Too bad...just ridiculous !!! I'm sure,your favourite tenor to sing Stolzing must be Klaus Florian Vogt.
Voigt ist nur etwas für Nicht-Kenner der Stimmen, er ist eher eine "Kindertrompete", aber kein Wagner-Sänger, auch wenn ihm alle Leute nachlaufen. Offenbar haben die auch weder Erfahrung noch Geschmack.
