[@wotan10950]

So beautiful and so emotional. Some singers focus only on their beautiful sound, and others emphasize the acting (usually to cover up vocal defects). Kaufmann has the vocal beauty and intense character.

[@jeremymunro1578]

I agree

[@basssinger47]

Besser gehts nicht.

[@wotan10950]

To my surprise, Kaufmann has said in interviews that it’s quite difficult for him to sing in German, his native language. But he explained that Wagner uses a very old style of language, not modern German, and it would be like English-speakers trying to sing the Saint James Bible!

[@Kegeljan]

I drove almost 4hrs alone, on a cold winter day, to see a screening of this performance. I'd do it again -- and especially for this sequence.

I just love this.

Me too. I saw this production in Paris and I was in tears. Deeply moved not only by his voice but his moving interpretation of the knight lost in a world that doesn’t understand what his mission is and want to destroy him.

[@Altonahh10]

Ich nehme mir die positiven Dinge aus Kaufmanns Gesang mit und allen voran steht die unvergleichliche Verständlichkeit für seine Figuren, was vor allem bei Tenören nicht gängig der Fall ist. Er durchdringt ihre Motive intellektuell und emotional und schafft dafür ein sehr breites Spektrum an musikalischem Ausdruck. Und liebe Puristen - das kann nun mal kaum jemand. Dass er "knödelt" höre ich auch. Dass seine Lyrismen oft in die Kopfstimme gehen, kann ich nicht leiden. Und trotzdem rührt er mich bei allem, was er singt.

This video of Lohengrin in simply the best ever recorded, and Mr Kaufman the greatest Lohengrin one can see live on stage in video … sublime … we are so lucky to live at the time where such an artist is among us … !!!

[@Geron1mo1]

Dominique Rousselle You have to hear Peter Anders singing "In fernem Land" Kaufmann doesnt even come close to him in every way. :/

[@Classicvideofan]

Tk you ... I'd love to make this experience and I will if he is on KZbin ....

[@Classicvideofan]

Geron1mo1 I listen to it ... I have no doubts about the fact that some singers of the past can rival with Kaufman in this aria ... that's why I was writing "the greatest Lohengrin ONE CAN SEE LIVE ON STAGE IN VIDEO" ... but even then ... there is an "inner fire" projected by Kaufman that I couldn't find here ... it's very nice singing but the top notes are somehow short/restricted ... (e.g. 4.52 ...) ... and it brings a feeling of being pushing a bit ... anyway opera is also a performing art in my view... and a lively one ... and therefore one can spend his all life listening to his favorite artists in LP CD or any other media ... but then this will not lead anywhere if one is not opening to new artists ... of course one is becoming more "difficult" as one is accumulating more "references" .... but although I think I have some I can greatly enjoy when a new real great singer is emerging ... and Kaufman is one of those without any doubt ... Thanks God there is nothing like a "single" truth that exists in the operatic realm ... and I know by my own experience that not only different so called "knowledgeable" people can have a different - often opposite - opinion about this or that .... but that one is himself going thru periods of time where one is immensely attracted toward a certain singer/voice (I could not unstick from Callas for years and it took me long to finally get in real touch with some others "goodies" like Miss Caballe, L Price or Sutherland ...) and even now I have some difficulties to listen to anyone else that Leonie Rysanek in some parts that have been associated with her during so many years (Sieglinde, the Empress, Kotshelnika ... ) or Renée (Manon, Marshallin, ...) so there is nothing like a static and single truth ... ;) ... thanks anyway because I did not know this singer ...

[@artshouldbebeautiful6407]

Oh my.. No, THIS is his best Lohengrin, even better than in Munich. The sheer perfection of his vocal timbre here is mind-boggling. Not sure there has ever been as smooth, rich and velvety a tenor voice. And the acting.. 'Oh Elsa!' has so much heart-wrenching pain in it that it is almost too difficult to watch. Blown away.

[@artshouldbebeautiful6407]

ArtShouldBeBeautiful Great shame, though, that he's sacrificed his family for all these achievements. That is most certainly nicht gut at all. A very serious case of putting the temporary above the eternal. Stardom is truly a huge temptation few can withstand against, and unfortunately classical musicians are no exception. If you look at the lives of even just the great conductors of the last century or so, how many managed to have a lifelong commitment? Maybe about 10%. And worst of all, in our fallen world this seems to be considered almost heroic by many, yet in reality it is a deep spiritual tragedy that casts long shadows over many lives because it is a serious contradiction to God's will, and the less it seems to affect the person in question in their other endeavors, the more somber the picture because speaks of a sad state of the soul. A sad consequence of idolatry, music being the idol. I pray he abandons this pretty new woman and returns to make his family whole again. With your priorities back in order, Jonas, though you are great, you will be even better, and for longer. And most importantly you will end the lifelong tragedy you are inevitably causing your children.

So schön... Die dunkle Färbung der stimme gibt der Interpretation Tiefe und Ruhe. All diejenigen die hier meinen ihn beleidigen zu müssen sollten sich mal gut fragen ob sie es besser können... Jonas Kaufmann ist unzweifelhaft einer der besten. Sicher muss man ihn nicht mögen aber wenn dann bitte konstruktive Kritik und nicht dieses gebrabbel. Und wer sagt er sei kein Tenor ist wirklich untendurch so was unqualifiziertes.

[@MatthiasStockert]

Warum muss man sich fragen, ob man es besser kann? Man muss doch selbst kein Sänger sein, um seine Stimme zu mögen oder nicht zu mögen. Man darf auch die Arbeit eines Malermeisters oder einer KFZ-Werkstatt (zurecht) kritisieren, wenn sie es nicht so erledigen wie es einem zusagt, oder sagen, das Brot von diesem und jenem Bäcker schmeckt einem eben besser als das vom anderen - dazu muss man das noch lange nicht "selber besser können". Ich finde seine Stimme grauenhaft und das ist genauso legitim wie Ihre (gegensätzliche) Meinung.

[@Hanako-sx3pr]

Yes, I have the whole video of this production for the LaScala season's opening in Nov-Dec 2012. This is a weird production directed by Claus Guth, very very psychological interpretation and need a lot of guessing. But JK was wonderful (as usual) as Lohengrin. Anette Dasch, stepping in at the last minute in place of Anja Harteros, did a wonderful job. Of course she had sung this with JK in 2010 at Bayreuth and also in 2011. But the interpretation of almost psychopath Elsa was difficult and she was very convincing. Lohengrin was barefoot from the beginning to the end except for a short duration at the wedding. I was worried that JK might catch a cold or flu, walking in the water in Act III. Oh, what opera singers have to do to be good and credible as characters the directors dream up with!

[@artshouldbebeautiful6407]

Hanako5100 Yes, I agree. I don't get this whole thing with the physical torture of the singers - why you would want to make them physically even in the least bit uncomfortable when they're working so hard?? I don't know that walking in water (it's probably warmed) can bring on illness, but certainly can't imagine it being comfortable, which i would think can cause stress and tension. I mean there's soooo much you can do to create drama, but these directors just have no imagination, not artistry, they go for the jugular, the cheap eccentricity effect. But considering this sounds like maybe Kaufmann's best Lohengrin ever, seems he dealt with all of it just fine. However to me the whole production just looks ugly, and bare feet totally don't jive with the beautiful music, but what are you going to do - that's the trend. The Munich one was even uglier - a stage full of sloppy looking tee-shirt clad weekenders. Sorry, the plumber look is just completely at odds with Wagner's music. Tasteless and awful.
