Die Fledermaus - English subtitles - Bavarian State Orchestra 1987 - Kleiber Wachter Coburn

[@leighdencker]

The acting is in this is superb. Never seen a version I enjoy more than this. Kleiber is fantastic. Wachter incredible.

[@Red80008]

I can't stress how much I love this. Beginning with it being my mothers' favorite tape and therefore having grown up to it (she was a singer herself, rip mom 💜), I have just never seen a more fun version: Carlos Kleiber perfectly times this fun and alive climax of Austrian operetta, a beautifully harmonizing cast (Pamela Coburn and Janet Perry performing together is just gold) plays most freely and happily quasi at home and mostly in roles that were almost made for them, especially for Eberhard Wächter, overall amazingly cast roles, especially Brigitte Fassbaender performing the most powerful and believable young playboy Prince Orloffsky I have ever seen, Franz Muxeneder as the most fun and quirky Frosch just one last time shortly before he died way too early and Ferry Gruber's Bilnd and last but not least the addition of the Bavarian State Ballet dancing to Strauss' "Unter Donner und Blitz" make this production one of the most enjoyable operettas (and operas) I have ever had to watch and/or attend. And there were plenty of them. And plenty that were just sooo boring... sorry, mom ^^ I will never forget this piece and performance as long as I live and will show it to anyone who wants (and doesn't want) to see it.

The prolonged applause from 1.40.06 - 1.41.34 is wonderful. Thoroughly deserved - the cast are having as much fun as the audience. Just wonderful.

[@gayanebarsegyan8774]

Carlos Kleiber is divine as always! He is fascinating and brilliant!

[@adris2604]

Un capolavoro, cast stupendo, scene bellissime e regia perfetta Kleiber come sempre Divino.

[@BytomGirl]

So glad I found it. Love Carlos Kleiber, the best conductor where I am concerned. A English subtitles too... Thank you

[@elenacamoirano595]

Great,so great performance,thanks for sharing it.Wonderful voices,dance and acting.

[@pega17pl]

Eine der, wenn nicht die weltweit beste Aufführung der Fledermaus dank Carlos Kleiber und seinem "Hausorchester" an der Bayerischen Staatsoper München. Kleiber "schüttelt" den leichten Schwung dieser wienerischten aller Operetten quasi aus dem Ärmel. - Grüße an alle Fans, Heinz

[@michaelremish]

Thank you for posting this! Wonderful performance

[@diogoleitao3337]

What an outstanding performance!!!

[@TheWukoLuka]

Yo, Gods Bless You for putting this up. My family has watched this for every new years of my entire life, and now, stuck over a thousand miles away from them, this incomprable performance lets me be close to them once again. Thank you for this. Also, this whole cast fuckin slaps. Holy shit. Every time I fucking lose it. Best Orloffski ever to play the role.

[@TheWukoLuka]

I mean, it is Brigitte Fassbaender after all

[@CziffraTheThird]

Happiest of New Year!!....yes....for our family too, this was the video recording my poppy bought all those years ago...Kleiber and everyone here, the absolute greatest Fliedermaus in recording history! I was shocked last night when I saw this actually uploaded on here!! I hope it never gets taken down!...

[@paulvesely4773]

Your language is incongruous . First sentence you incorporate God and the last sentence you run out of adjectives and resort to the F word to express yourself. I don't get it .

[@TheWukoLuka]

@@paulvesely4773 Ahahahahahahahahaha Okay, buddy. While I don't see what business it is of yours, I shall attempt to clarify, as your reading comprehension seems to have failed you on a few fronts and I, in turn, have a few free minutes this afternoon. First, if you notice, I didn't invoke (which, I argue, would be the more precise word choice; while incorporate is not wrong per se, it is definitely a weaker word choice as mere incorporation neither denotes not connotes affinity for a thing) GOD. I invoked GODS, because I'm a pagan; I worship several deities, none of which forbid obscenity. Second, even if I HAD invoked a singular god, and had INTENDED that invoked deity to be the Judeo-Christian All-Father, there is nothing in biblical scripture that argues against or precludes obscene speech, only PROFANE speech; that is, speech disrespectful toward that God specifically. Third, I in no way ran out of adjectives. I used a set of vernacular terms to describe the intensity of my emotional reaction to the piece. I chose those terms specifically and with great care, as it evokes the particular feeling of listening to an absolute fucking banger in a reader familiar with that vernacular. That you are not versed enough in said vernacular to parse it is not MY problem; despite this, I would encourage you to study it, as the particulars of description it provides are both visceral and evocative. I do understand and respect, however, that some people have a heartfelt (if typically rooted in classism) aversion to such vernacular, and would not be offended if you choose not to; after all, who am I (or any of us) to police another's' style of speech? Finally, even if I HAD run out of adjectives, I fail to see an incongruity in connection to invocation of God. Given the repetitive descriptors of so many Christian writings about their deity, the idea that the invocation of God should indicate facility and variety in description is, at best, specious. I hope this helps to clarify. Happy fathers' day!

Great performance.

[@giovannab.7675]

Grazie mille per questa condivisione!

[@anamariamartinsnunez9834]

Gracias por compartir esta maravilla del insuperable Carlos Kleiber, con un elenco extraordinario, (pero si tengo que elegir a uno de los intèrpretes me quedo con Brigitte Fassbaender,)sòlo por exceso de exigencia). Tengo esta versiòn en dvd, pero se ve muy mal y aunque esta copia no es muy buena, es mejor que la otra. Otra vez muchas gracias por su generosidad.

I love the version

[@Dylonely42]

Utterly wonderful.

[@jvdesuit1]

la meilleure version à ce jour surpassant celle de Vienne car les chanteurs même ceux issus du monde de l'opéra ont bien compris qu'il s'agit d'une opérette qui ne doit nullement recourir aux effets de bel canto comme le font la plupart des interprètes de la version Guschlbauer de Vienne de 1980 présente sur youtube dont seule Edita Gruberova pouvait se permettre puisque son personnage veut devenir actrice et pourquoi dans le domaine lyrique. C'est elle d'ailleurs dans cette version qui est la plus parfaite à tous points de vue.

More Viennese than the Viennese? Bavarian State Orchestra under Kleiber was amazing!

[@IngridSchwaegermann-d1p]

The Bavarian State Orchestra celebrates its anniversary of 500 years this year. The American conductor Kent Nagano, who was its chief conductor from 2006 to 2013 was literally in awe of this tradition. Along came a Western Siberian sweetheart named Kirill Petrenko who dared to put his stamp on this orchestra and succeeded so well that now he is chief conductor of the Berliner Philharmoniker.

[@paulvesely4773]

The orchestra and the cast were wonderful and for the most part I really enjoyed this performance. The one drawback was primarily in the third act. Excessive , tedious slap stick . For the most part not clever or funny. The premise of the Opera is in itself clever and very amusing and not in need of augmentation with very poor , time consuming attempts at humor. The audience was forgiving on this issue which should not be misconstrued as an endorsement . On balance , Thanks JD for posting this.

[@IngridSchwaegermann-d1p]

You might wish to take a look at the Wikipedia entry regarding this operetta: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Die_Fledermaus. I wonder if you have not realized, yet, that the third act serves as denouement to the buildup of the plot of the first two acts. In general, the text of the third act has been written in or about 1874, and the basic 'jokes' of the denouement stem from that time. In this 1987 Munich production, I could only detect one local reference to 'Stadelheim,' the Munich jail. The role of the Vienna prison warden was played here by Franz Muxeneder, probably a 'Class B' performer. Excellent performers in this role were three Austrian 'A+-Class actors such as Joseph Meinrad at Covent Garden in London, and the Viennese actor, director and opera director Otto Schenk, as well as the Viennese actor Hans Moser. In a recent Munich New Year's Eve performance by the Bavarian State opera, the Munich actress and comedian Luise Kinseher played "Frosch." It is a tradition in many German-speaking cities to stage this operetta on New Year's Eve. As a native of Munich, I often wonder what our Munich comedian Karl Valentin would have made out of the "Frosch" role. In any event, wishing you many more delightful performances of this Strauss operetta!😀

[@RequiemAeternam01]

There's an earlier production from the Wiener Staatsoper that was filmed in 1980, with Otto Schenk's stage design (also used here) that treats this scene better. The Austrian actor Helmuth Lohner plays the prison warden and is very convincing, making it seem far more convincing than this version. I also prefer the Vienna production on the basis of singers: Bernd Weikl is an absolutely irresistible Eisenstein, and paired with Walter Berry as Dr. Falke, it's genuinely hilarious. Lucia Popp I believe does a better job as Rosalinde, both acting and singing wise. Her voice is just unbelievably beautiful and her acting is very masterful. Also, unpopular opinion, but I believe Edita Gruberova played the role of Adele perfectly in the 1980 production. She's wonderfully over the top, portraying Adele as the naive and somewhat childish chambermaid that she is (at least in my opinion), and she sings her two arias with such perfection that it makes you want to applaud.
