Thank you for generously posting this Meistersinger. The best 'live' Meistersinger I've heard in years. Vogt was just excellent and sang the best 'Prize Song' I've heard in years and years listening to Wagner. The audience hesitating to applaud in mid-song obviously agreed I'm sure. He sounded as fresh from start to finish. The rest of the cast were wonderful as well and sounded very naturally involved with the production. For once Walther does not sound like he is courting his grandmother. Thanks again for sharing.
