Richard Wagner: Der Ring ohne Worte - Querschnitt aus dem Ringzyklus von Lorin Maazel 

Für mich sind solche Orchesterbearbeitungen der Wagnerschen Werke wunderbar, ja ich liebe sie eigentlich mehr als das Original mit seinen Längen, seltsamen Texten und Handlungen. Die wirkliche Substanz, nämlich die einzigartige Musik, kann so besser hervortreten, insbesondere dadurch, dass man die Musiker auch sieht. Und nicht zuletzt: Auf die heute üblichen meist reichlich seltsamen bis unpassenden Ideen von geltungssüchtigen Regisseuren kann ich nur zu gerne verzichten!

How many decades or even centuries does mankind have to wait to create another genius like Richard Wagner. I am thrilled to have listened to his creations. It never gets old. We have of course other tremendously outstanding musical geniuses (also delightful to listen to) but none requiring nor demanding so much from a 120 plus instrument orchestra. Conductor Maazel made some very nice choices for these excerpts. Also, beautifully performed by the orchestra. Lastly, I have to confess that I might be a bit prejudiced (though I don't think so judging by the "thumbs up") because I was born in Rostock und die Heimat ist und bleibt die Heimat.

Einfach nur schön, ich liebe Wagner!!!!😍

Thanks Richard for giving us an hour and a half to close our eyes and be transported to world of the gods.

es ist schon unglaublich dass ein Mensch sich so etwas geniales ausdenken kann. Großartig interpretiert!!!

Großartige Zusammenstellung von Lorin Maazel, die Wagners Werk auch dem Laien zugänglich macht. RIP

I envy these young musicians, getting to play such magnificent music relatively early!

17:24 That's Amazing!!

Ah, the Old Sorcerer, his head filled with The Ring, Bayreuth, Schopenhauer, Gesamtkunstwerk, Nietzsche, and thousands of Leitmotifs,.....would he appreciate this exuberant group of young musicians giving their all for his extraordinary music.....?

Vielen Dank für die Talente.🥰👍🎵🎶🎼🌍❤

Spectacular, just spectacular! Everyone, and particularly the conductor for bringing it together.

Splendid. Thank you.

la mejor que he escuchado...gracias por compartir

22:40 my Favorite. I can cry

BEAUTIFUL, EVERY DAY I LISTEN , EVERY DAY BEAUTIFUL , MY EMOTION IS INCREASING TO NEW LEVEL EVERY DAY.

What a terrific performance! And by a youth orchestra, no less. If we were listening over FM radio, we might have suspected it was the Berlin Philharmonic or the Bavarian Radio Orchestra. This is the second time I have viewed this. Thanks for posting.

Just simply wonderful!

Such a joy and delight - Pure Soul Music!!

Bravo pour ce magnifique concert ;-)

Ausgezeichnet!!!!!!!!!!!! Magnifico!!!!!!!!!! Perfecto!!!!!! Ochen Horosho!!!!!!

Absolutely superb performance of sublime music Thank you so much! It really doesn't get better than this...

Bravo Wagner!!!!!!!!!Excelet music!

Das ist sehr emotional.

Gracias!

Kudos to the Bass Trumpeter, he killed it!

Nagyon jó felvétel! Ezt többször is megnézem. Ajánlom másoknak is.A karmester Christfried Göckeritz.

Und wieder knie ich nieder vor den ehernen Hallen - fantastisch!

what an honest and passionate performance absolutely wonderful🎶

Excelente. Tanto Maazel como esa juvenil orquesta electrizan el alma. Agradezco a quien subió esta perfección wagneriana.

MAGNIFICENT

Brilliant, thanks for uploading - in HD too! :)

Einfach großartig!

Quite cerebral music, worth listening to it again and again to catch the depth of its build

Magnifique ! Je le montre à mes deux petites filles pour leur montrer le génie de Wagner , la puissance de la musique, le rôle de chacun des instruments, ce qu’est l’orchestration, le rôle du chef d’orchestre, la ferveur de ces jeunes musiciens, la technique de chacun des instruments, leur rôle dans l’orchestre... en un mot les inciter à persévérer dans l’étude de la musique, les aider à faire le choix d’un instrument... éveiller leurs émotions, aimer le beau , et « contempler » une des plus belles création de l’humain : la Musique

The best rendition of Maazel’s Ring without Words that I’ve heard to date! Kudos to you, young musicians, and to your concert master!

Such work, such Magic!

Endlich einmal ohne Oper, zwar ist Der Ring des Nibelungen eine GENIALE Oper von Wagner, allerdings gefällt mir die Musik als reines viel viel mehr. :-D Tolle Arbeit!

♥♥♥

Hammer guy at 11:50... :)

Excelsior wonderfull !

What I heard of the original score thumbs up

Thrillingly done!

THANK YOU DEUTSCHLAND FOR WAGNER DANKE SCHOEN

1:05:14 The woman lefts eyes and feel waht shes thinking and this melody this is a very experience for me. I can feel the music with the caracters in this video. its very interessant

how an orchestra can play the end-music from Goetterdamerung without breaking down is beyond me. Peak music of Western Civilization. Thanks, RW....and LM.

Extraordinaria orquesta y muy buen director.

Allein der Auftakt bis Min 6:00 ist erhebend und grandios.

Bravo!!!

Are you new to the Ring? Begin here! Do you enjoy it on stage? Try this, it's maybe better like this! Absolutely amazing!

Gracias.....

Csupa fiatal hölgy és férfi nagyszerű teljesítményt nyújtott, pedig ez a szimfónikus mű nagy figyelmet és profi munkát igényelt.

Das ist wirklich großartig. Aber man hätte noch viel mehr Stücke hinzufügen können. Zum Beispiel Siegfried Schmiedeszene, das Vorspiel des dritten Aktes des Siegfried sowie die Musik wo Siegfried den Berg erklimmt und durch das Feuer bricht. Ach da könnte man noch so viel dazufügen. Einfach großartig, Wagners Ring!

excellent

The incomparable and unique prime donne assolute, dive supreme et Helden Tenor of Richatrd Wagner's majestic and sublime music is THE SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA. J'ai toujours été de l'avis que le paroles abîment l'effet céleste de sa musique.

Браво гениально исполнено

Porque el Maestro Barenboim no menciono a la cantante que intervino en el concierto del 27.12.? Muy buena su dirección.Dr.Leiva Roberto Rosario Argentina

Maazel no es el director en este concierto, sino el autor de la selección del ciclo del Ring sin palabras (ohne Worte). El concierto se hizo un año antes de su muerte a los 84 años. Ignoro quién es el director.

❤

18:35 Ride of the Valkyries

I love how at the end of the immolation music the string section are all sawing away at their violins. If I were one I'd rig mine with a smoking effect

Wow, I am very impressed with this performance. I am amazed as to how tight and in tune they are. Very good indeed!! The tempos of the conductor provided is also very good. I'm just blown away that they are that tight. The brass players got tired half way through, so their intonation could be better, but hey, they played a lot, so it's not their fault. The strings are have very good to excellent intonation. And they're together!! Plus, the girls are so beautiful!!! They should be models. There are so many very pretty looking girls. 2nd Oboe, the horn player that doubles the Wagner Tuba next to the contra-bassoon, the 1st clarinet, the concert master, the timpanist, and many more. They're all fit looking girls too.

Names of the first trumpet and French horn anyone? Amazing job, kudos to them! Thanks

Maravilha!

24:57 its a very lyric part.wow

11:52 What Instrument do you play? I play the f****** Hammer lol

Thank You Close

For a High School Band...Awesome!

Kíváló szimfónikus művet lehetett összeállítani négy operából. Ott többi is, és bennük a lehetőség: Tristan und Isolde, Parsifal,Tannhauser, Lohengrin, Der Fliegende Hollander

The livery stables and the hateful king a whole world of imagination opens starting with sun rise and the grandeur of the love of a people. Bravo. BRAVO

Perfeito

Wagner significa una revolucion en el universo de la musica. Es uno de los preferidos del maestro Daniel Barenboin. Pegotear a Wagner con el nazismo es una forma de sincretismo en el pensamiento 4:00

this is the best part and you can't change my mind 18:57

11:53 imagino que foi isso que Mahler pediu para sua 6ª Sinfonia.

The opening minutes of 'Rheingold' can be tricky, and this youth orchestra struggled, but things improved after the first five minutes or so. Very impressive.👍

1:07:27 Timpani wrong entry!!

17:57

Der Ring ohne Worte is azt bizonyítja, hogy zeneileg milyen erős a Ring másik feldolgozása is, amelyet maga Lorin Maazel állított össze.. Sokkal lendületesebb, mint The Symphonyc RING irányítója és valószínűleg összeállítója is.

Show

I agree with almost all of the other comments....I love it and I listen to it over and over.... On an unrelated subject I erroneously made a comment criticising another poster, " HighLandKing ", whose comment had nothing to do with this beautiful, evocative music! Somehow he was expressing such outlandish racially biased comments that I impulsively responded! Jeesh, I had either buy a better brand of booz, or go to bed earlier.... Wes

The way it should be done

Gazapos mínimos en una notable interpretación de esta orquesta universitaria alemana. Desafío superado.

29 will be denied by the Gods!

The conductor is not elegant but he gets a very decent sound from his players. There used to be on RU-vid a video of Maazel (who put together this wordless Ring) conducting this piece. It was a very fine video production but it seems to have disappeared from RU-vid.

11:00 starts detuning... but recovers later.

👍

Pretty good -- and for a high school, too!

Wer's kennt und sich auskennt schmunzelt.

18:36 Lift off

1:08:48

Well Morden101, while I too enjoy the 'music', it is just Wagner's medium; the libretto is his message (hardly fair to consider it 'screeching). In short, it tells of an ancient people wise enough to create their gods as finite doufases who have to eat a special diet to stay young, and have to hire evil giants to build Valhalla for them, and then can't pay when the job is done … yadayadayada … and blessedly die out before screwing up the world too badly. Contrast that with OUR ancestors, who created infinite Deities (and promptly began killing off non-believers willy-nilly) which are still hanging around so preoccupied with not answering prayers that the world is going to hell in a hand basket … and without much really memorable music to show for it.

8:53 - Cannibal Corpse - "Hammer smashed face"?

Rectifico: el director es Christfried Göckeritz

the birth of metal

El festival anual que se lleva a cabo en Europa dirigido por la familia Pasquier no tiene nada que ver con la WWII.

1:04:20 Holy Horn Batman!

Yes, That's not Lorin MAAZEL.

A female timpanist...I am in love :D

A young Jordan Peterson doesn’t like that horn blasting in the back of his ear very much Ha Ha - Hilarious

that's not Lorin Maazel.
