Wagner: Parsifal - Vorspiel ∙ hr-Sinfonieorchester ∙ Andrés Orozco-Estrada

[@garylysaght1579]

Not sure why anyone could dislike this. Setting, conducting and musicians are perfect. Thank you

[@lilalola33]

Vielen herzlichen Dank an dieses großartige Orchester welches uns den Genuss dieses Meisterwerks ermöglicht.

[@soffronitsky]

Wonderful performance. This location is perfect for this piece: Wagner himself imagined the Siena's cathedral as the Hall of the Grail... and I appreciate also the choice of cutting the (well deserved) applause. Thank you.

[@shupingwang3392]

A wonderful orcestra and conductor that adds value.

[@bernardlenfant6931]

Du grand Wagner, admirablement bien servi. Quelle chance de pouvoir vivre de tels moments . Merci.

[@notaire2]

Echt wunderschöne Aufführung dieses typisch wagnerischen Vorspiels unter der künstlerischen Leitung dieses südamerikanischen Dirigenten. Die Töne der Streicher sind echt seidig und auch mysteriös.

[@spencerkeegan3826]

A true reminder that human beings are capable of such wonderous things.

[@headythomas954]

Perfectly recorded. Amazing sound!

[@kezako4741]

Cette tension... Avec la naissance, le bourgeonnement d'abord timide puis plus affirmé des bois et des cuivres à 1'20". D'une incomparable beauté qui me renverse.

[@karlox350]

¡Bravo! Magnífica interpretación. Me ha dejado con la boca abierta.

[@vitellia7299]

Dieses wunderbar mystische, subtile Vorspiel beinhaltet auch: "Durch Mitleid wissend, der reine Tor. Harre sein, den ich erkor." Parsifal muss Erlösung bringen, auch Kundry vom Zauberbann Klingsors erlösen.

[@andrew1976williams]

A sensational performance!

[@joachimziemen7805]

Grandios. Der alte Zauberer verzaubert wie eh und je. Ich werde mich seinem Bann wohl nie entziehen können. Also, um es ummünzend mit Thomas Mann zu sagen: Wagner in Maßen.

"Wagner did not know how to pray, so he composed Parsifal". (Franz Liszt)

[@peteklat]

@@sgomez201 Liszt said it to one of his students.

[@Kumurajiva]

We don’t know how to pray , so we watch this

[@keithburdette4682]

Through divine intervention, Wagner wrote this.

The other side is spectacular ✨

[@hanstaeubler]

Although not performed in the usual theatrical setting, Wagner would certainly have enjoyed this place - in the Romanesque, pre-Gothic longhouse/nave of the basilica of Eberbach Abbey - and with this performance of Parsifal's prelude!

[@allenspencer6434]

Thank You Awesome

[@nickwright6034]

Truly excellent and magisterial.

[@raticida123456]

excellent thank you

[@matzek.9119]

Wahrscheinlich mit das Schönste was Wagner geschrieben hat.

[@angelalfonsorojasquiroz5936]

Obra Sublime, al tomar Conciencia y encontrar y ver y sentir al Padre Creador, lleno de felicidad y amor verdadero, asi Wagner, es su obra Póstuma y obsequio a la humanidad de encontrar el Amor y con él; al Padre Creador.

[@SilviaGarcíarío]

No conozco esta obra pero si las anteriores son supremas!!!!!

Wagner needed and editor.

[@RickB500]

Da lauschen alle Andächtig zum schönen Schluss und keiner klatscht. Dann dieses hässliche hr-Jingle. Hats mir etwas verdorben. Auch der Anfang nervt meist.

[@andreapandypetrapan]

In terms of coherent dramatization and characterisation, Parsifal is a ludicrous mess. A train crash me in the operaeth of hapless puppets circling round issues of CAtholic peitism, Geril mythology, Buddhsitic surrender of the ego (the most respectable t So laughable in fact, that the chuckles that slip from ones cynical reaction are totally at odds with the spirit of genuflection one is being invited to adopt. Perhaps Wagner was conscious of this result, and intended a certain ironic and corrupted levity - more Alban Berg and Kurt Weill than Bayreuth, ehh? One can feel and witness the jerky leaps from one incident and subject matter to the next, as Wagner is patently trying to bend and forge the drama to fit her-his higher metaphysical and emotional, and essentially psycho-dramatic, perceptions. Nonetheless, on the basis of the opera's revelation and consecration of some of the most sublime and fundamental myths at work in our collective psyches, s/he - Doctor Wagner, the Magician of Bayreuth - is to be honoured with an eternal seat on Mount Olympus. Thus it is that this overture is pregnant (a very apt word) with the themes of: (1) the forces of eternal decay leading us into death; (2) the conflict between eternal decay and the sacred ritual of life's renewal (much as with the Freia and golden apples mythos), encapsulated i the ; (3) the perception that our womanly power to create life down the generations is the definitive answer to our individual mortality (this is the real point about Kundry and her magic). We need only mention a few important womanly figures in Wagner's lie - Christine Wilhelmine "Minna" Planer, Mathilde Wesendonck. Francesca Gaetana Cosima Liszt, etc, etc. - the list is admirably long; (4) the insight that the reabsorption of our mostly illusory ego perspective within the "great ocean" of our collective consciousness, is our unavoidable and in some ways most desirable destiny; (5) the parallels that are drawn between that oceanic domain permeating all our lives, and (a) the duty to maintain sacred rituals to fend off the corrupting darkness (very Judaic) , and (b) the need to understand the sense of the "Urwald", the primaeval forest, the feeling of elemental power, the insight that one is dealing with something profound, sensuous and utterly engulfing. Again, Kundry (the pagan witch from the forest) is the emblem of this scarvely disguised Freudian-Jungian elemental eroticsm. (6) the employment of the figure or token or symbol of the holy and innocent fool (another Seigfried), as the focal point for the revelation, enlightenment and epiphany the occurs on grasping these deep truths. In a sense, it might be argues Wagner in Parsifal reached the boundaries of his own doctrine of the total work of art, where singing, acting, drama, stage craft and music are blended with incredible expressiveness. His symphonic genius was wrestling with emotional depts and complexities, and with transcendental truths and hyper-symbolic ideas, that even he could not write characters and drama to match. Or perhaps the opera is just a mess of unfinished dramatic sketches, which if WAgner had lived another 10 years, he might well have radically revised. Love, andrea

Why does modern conductors wear those horrible jackets as if they were Mat Tse Tung? Why do they have decided to dress different from other members of the orchestra?

[@PaulHerbert1956]

His jacket is quite tasteful. I saw Andris Nelsons conducting the Vienna Philharmonic on New Year's Day wearing what looked like a purple velvet tent. I would love to see tuxedoes done away with and come up with an alternative clothing option that is easy for men to get into and comfortable to wear. Many choirs are doing away with tuxedoes and black gowns.

[@adelincatinean4784]

Why not? They are the boss not a simple player.. Lots of knowledge, dedication, study, etc etc etc. So They are entitled to wear wathever They want! If you dont like it's just your taste and nobody cares!

[@carlostaberner1769]

Con la de comentarios y detalles (todos maravillosos) que pueden hacerse de esta pieza y te vienes a fijar en la chaqueta??

[@october65-h6e]

Shut your eyes and listen to the music!

[@arteguey]

Insults does not answer my question.

[@Classical_Music_account]

This doesn't speak to me. The melody is weak.

[@janel342]

Oh poor you

[@wormswithteeth]

Is that Kundry??
