Max Lorenz Documentary English subtitles

Max Lorenz documentary with English subtitles

[@jancedricmicheler6122]

Max Lorenz war einer der grössten Tenöre seiner Zeit, ein Gentleman mit still und Charme seine Stimme bleibt uns Erhalten.

[@andrewwilliams2353]

I had never heard of Max Lorenz until today when I saw this wonderful documentary. He WAS Siegfried. Also a tender hearted and heroic man - saving those people he loved in the worst of times.

[@hwh1946]

I was in tears at the end. What a great man who hapoened to b e a singer.

[@WMP777]

He was heroic on the music stage, but most, above all, in the real life drama where he put his life on the line, to save his wife and the people he loved. His artistic value is beyond comparison.

[@peterlunow]

what a singer ,what a man and WHAT a story!!!!

[@cartrefo2000]

Thanks for sharing this wonderful, informative film or the heldentenor legend Max Lorenz!! A real Wagner legend. marvelous voice, heroic !!!!

[@tenorschofield]

One of the best of the best ever!!!...to listen to the comments of "astros of lyric" as Fisher Dieskau, Kollo,Zadek,etc is great!!!, is like having a direct knowledge of Max Lorenz singing,it is like have been between the audience !!! BRAVOOOO!!!!!!!!!!

[@geraldsternbach1605]

Another revelatory documentary about a completely underrated ( especially in the USA) and fantastic singer. I loved loved loved watching featured ( and stellar!) interviewees listen to him....Amazing.

[@Shoshas]

Wonderful Singer! I can feel something special when He sings Wagner.

[@BerlinerOmar]

I've seen this documentary on TV years ago and fell in love with max,, many thanks for uploading it here I just finished watching it again

[@williamevans9426]

A fascinating doumentary. Many thanks to posting it on KZbin!

[@robertwbecker]

Thank you for this wonderful documentary on this Giant! And with subtitles yet!

[@chk1230]

3:54 you can really hear his voice 'live' in the hall and the ambient sound, very strong voice, very powerful and beautiful

[@shosha1878]

Absolutely. You're right. Huge voice.

[@robertevans8010]

I actually heard him live before WW2 in London three times, he alternated with Melchior in Siegfried and in Tristan, he was a fine Heldentenor but Melchior definitely was in a different class, this was also true in New York, even though they were good friends, but Melchior certainly hated the Nazi's for Lorenz it was very much keep your mouth shut, he certainly suffered because of the Race and Homosexual hate of the Nazi's . His Voice was Large and resonant, but there were problems in some performances, with Tempi and Diction for the purists, I heard him in London after the War his voice had not the quality of the Mid Thirties. Frida Leider was much in the same situation as Lorenz with her Husband. I find this Documentary rather sad in a way, there was much more to this Great Tenor, he was let down by the people who had before the war and During the War given the Heil Hitler, now later they were also turning their back on this very Gentle man. Lorenz was no Nazi but many of his colleagues were. Should he have stayed in New York, he would have had a much happier life, Melchior thought he should have.

[@1UShawn]

I love how they use metamorphosen as the dramatic insight, it is such an expressive piece of music

[@yurimeyrowitz6788]

Yes... I just wish they would have ended the film with a more appropriate section of the work... the one they used just hangs...

[@efverhagen]

At 8:07 the audio starts with the Götterdämmerung duet, taken from the 1952 Bayreuth Festival, with Lorenz as Siegfried, Varnay as Brünnhilde and Keilberth conducting. At 8:26 the audio fades into the 1934 performance, now with Leider as Brünnhilde. At 8:54 the surviving video footage joins the audio.

[@ianng9915]

52 Gotterdammerung is arguably the greatest Gotterdammerung, along with the 50 la scala, both with Lorenz as Siegfried

[@rickos1915]

Many thanks for posting.....a wonderful documentary

[@sgsmozart]

[@tenorschofield]

MARVELOUS MAX LORENZ😇🙏🎶💜🕊️

[@kiwophil]

Outstanding documentary!!!

[@Rosangela161]

Excellent. Thanks

[@ElSmusso]

german is so easy to understand... but harder to speak because of the difficult grammar... good thing I learned it in high school :) thanx teacher.... I didn't understand why you tortured us with homework... but I am thankful today.

His voice was a gift of God, but to me the greatest singer remains Björling. I am green with envy!!!!!

[@tenorschofield]

Great and wonderful heldentenor, probably shadowed his well deserved "popularity", due to the relation he had with the german Nazi's in the 1930-40's...but what else could he had done?, I feel he was not a politician nor a anti-jewish man, probably he was only an "artistic spirit", minding only of music, voice (testa di tenore, migth some say). I feel a little sad for this forgotten marvelous artist. We must not forget Lorenz art and talent. Bravo!!!

[@waltermontani1621]

molto interessante! grazie...

[@ukulus]

After hearing Lorenz's voice and presence I wonder how today's some of the great(!!!!!😆😆😆😆) Wagner, Strauss repertoire singing tenors may go on calling themselves as Heldentenor.

[@meninohulk4289]

The greatest. Even at 51, his Siegfried in Götterdämmerung was a thousand times anyone else, save for a golden few.

[@berdiddyberdisberbaboint2763]

Absolute magic.

[@thomasdahlen8533]

Max was one of the Greatest.

[@JWP452]

Fischer-Dieskau must have passed away just as you wrote that. What a great talent!

[@shosha1878]

I like what Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau says at 40:55 Totally true. That's today opera singers Need...

[@user-ni3pu2fg7k]

Super!!!💥🌈

[@ufa188]

Firestorm brought me here well actually Martin Stein

[@ufa188]

legends of tomorrow

[@UUser1337]

Ceedrek LOL ME TOO😂😂

[@denizbozdag8377]

Oh yes

[@dragucatalino9357]

Idolo del grande tenore Ion Piso ed anche idolo mio, piccolissimo cantante, però, conoscitore delle vere voci e della verità sulla splendida vita di Max Lorenz.

[@ciroalb3]

goodness, hard to believe the Fischer-Dieskau is now 83.

[@shosha1878]

At 39:33 I star to cry...What else can I say about so wonderful artist...?

[@ianng9915]

Greatest Siegfried's death. No one came close

[@pega17pl]

Auch dieser Sänger mußte zum Schluß die bittere Wahrheit erfahren, daß das Leben eines großen Sängers/einer großen Sängerin auf der Bühne stattfindet und mit dem Abschied von ihr endet.

[@jihyunsuh1255]

8:02 1934 bayreuth gotterdammerung starts. frida leider and lorenz.

[@stephanhammers4716]

Hier muss ich Fischer-Dieskau, den ich als Sänger auch kritisch sehe, aber sehr recht geben, wenn er sagt: "Heute ist weit und breit nichts zu finden, was dem entspräche. Nichts. Pure Luft."

[@tenoremodernotecnicavecchi2151]

Where can find the video footage??

[@uffegrebst5393]

Have just been i Bayreuth to see walkure Parsifal Lohengrin It give me the CREEPS to see Die Singeres in Suits Come on genuk von diese neu bull shit siegfried und Siegmund must bee in woif skin and not in suits and ok til rins im hand GENUCH

[@uffegrebst5393]

This Is the real Thing

[@mihaelaneagu7844]

I can't see the subtitle

[@gaetanomariapiscopo5637]

Even if I prefer Suthaus as Tristan, he was a real great person, also for what he had to face during his life.

[@georgedover1411]

tragic singers like that dont exist today.

[@ransomcoates546]

They glossed over the fact of his being openly homosexual. He was too important to the regime to be persecuted for it.

[@nisanus]

Ein Gott.

[@elsalohengrin7777]

Kind of funny: first at all when I was around 20 yeras old I moved in one room apartment where realtives of Fischer-Diskau used to live. Secondly I will have all my live the voice of Rene Kollo in my ear! Many, man times heard in the deutsche Oper Berlin/Götz Friedrich! So I am kind of imprinted by bothn when I compare at least classical Helden Tenöre! Herr Kollo ist der "hellste" in der Höhe, Heldentenor den ich kenne (der Trisatn Kollo und wrauch immer) Götz friedrich Inzinierung, wird mich bis zum Tod begleiten, hatte soagr in Harvard denTRISTAN in einer Buchhandlung las Video gefunden, nach einem blind date mit einem Bariton, es gibt Dinge zwischen Himmel und Erde Alles Liebe und Gute

[@benthomas3395]

Lorenz/Melchior; how did they compare?

[@warronconroy8460]

Wonderful, and opening a new phase of Wagner for me

[@shosha1878]

I star to cry at 39:38

[@antoniopedrolisboa]

3:53 :O

[@uffegrebst5393]

this is Wagner Helden tenor The GREATHES EVER MELCHIOR Im walkure augh und Volker Lohengrin All others sound like small moskitos/maus

[@brunegilda2453]

Melchior sounded always exactly the same: Siegmund, Siegfried, Tristan, Tannhaüser, even Lohengrin ( yelling all the time, why? Did he think the soprano was deaf? )... the same role. Pffff.

[@nisanus]

Perfekt, welch betörende Stimme! Nur Reiner Goldberg konnte ihm nahen........

[@gedakhatutskaya3064]

Was his wife a Jewish?!

[@uffegrebst5393]

Back to the rots. no more new shit STOP STOP STOP NOW

[@klausbrauckmann9095]

Was für ein Sänger ! Großtartig
