Einzigartig wie Manfred Jung den Siegfried singt in Dynamik, Dramatik, sicherer wie klangvoller Höhe bei Textverständlichkeit..zudem ist das ein Siegfried, der drahtig agiert. Ein überzeugender Siegfried. Schade,daß auch seine Stimme für immer verstummt ist. Ein großer und bescheidener Künstler.
Diese Ring-Inszenierung ist noch heute in allem das Maß aller Dinge. P. Chereau und P. Boulez brachten dieses Werk in Gänze zur absoluten Vollendung, wenn ich mir ansehe was aus Bayreuth geworden ist, mit Richard Wagner hat das nichts mehr zu tun.
I used to find it disappointing that this production uses an automated drop hammer instead of having Siegfried hammer out the sword himself, but I've compared other productions and found that not a single performer has been able to get the hammer strikes perfectly. I guess it's just too distracting trying to sing and hammer to the beat at the same time, so maybe this production made a good choice after all by letting Siegfried just focus on the singing.
@@stephengould4343 Schager does a great job singing and acting, but with the hammer, he loses the beat just after "...zornig spruh'st du mir funken..." I think that's about where most Siegfrieds lose the beat, because that section has tricky parts where the hammer strikes switch between one, two, or three at a time.
But Schager does a very good job at making it look like everything went to plan. If it weren't for me already knowing where the hammer strikes are supposed to go, I wouldn't have noticed anything off.
Der beste Mime! Der Siegfried Darsteller hat echt eine tolle Stimme, ist charismatisch aber so hoffnungslos unterlegen, dass ich in dieser Inszenierung auf jeden Fall Mime zutrauen würde Fafner selbst zu erledigen. Viel kraftvoller als dieser verlegene Siegfried.
As with every other attempt at staging this, it's so weak in comparison to what the imagination can do with the scene, and indeed with the entre cycle.
@@zogwort1522 You poor sod, are you really that far from any concept of what is happening here? Still, I guess your interpretive social-justice and CRT dance lecturer will give you top marks for that comment, so all's well.
