○ Werkeinführung
Nicht gerade unbescheiden verarbeitet Richard Strauss in seiner Tondichtung „Also sprach Zarathustra“ das Hauptwerk des Philosophen und Philologen Friedrich Nietzsche (1844 - 1900). Dieser deutete das Griechentum neu und schuf eine diesseitsbetonte Lehre. Nicht die weltverneinende Philosophie Arthur Schopenhauers, sondern ein stolzer, dionysischer Mensch sollte zum Leitbild unserer Kultur werden. Dieser erhebt sich über alle in sinnsuchende Religionen flüchtenden „Hinterweltler“. Nietzsches Schrift „Also sprach Zarathustra“ (1883) nutzt eine hymnische Sprache. Die Worte sind dem altiranischen Propheten Zoraster (Zarathustra) in den Mund gelegt, der im ersten oder zweiten Jahrtausend vor Christus lebte.
Es sei doch eigentlich unmöglich, Nietzsche zu vertonen, protestierten damals viele. Strauss bewies das Gegenteil. Er filterte die visionäre Sprache und das Ungeheure der Schrift als akustische Essenz heraus. Bereits die von Strauss als Sonnenaufgang gedeutete langsame Einleitung mit ihrer von Moll zu Dur aufgehellten Naturton-Fanfare der Trompeten besitzt eine geradezu futuristische Wirkung. Die neun Teile der Komposition basieren auf Kapitel-Überschriften Nietzsches. Zum Gipfel des Werks macht Strauss „Das Tanzlied“, einen Wiener Walzer mit ausgedehntem Violinsolo. Trotz des nachdenklichen Ausklangs dieser Tondichtung scheint die Botschaft klar: Nicht dem Zweifler, sondern dem im Hier und Jetzt tanzenden Menschen gehört die Welt. Ursprünglich bezeichnete Strauss seinen „Zarathustra“ als „Symphonischen Optimismus in Fin de siècle-Form“ und widmete ihn vorausschauend „dem 20. Jahrhundert“. Fortschrittlich sind die furiose Orchesterbehandlung und die dynamisch offene Form. „Ich bin doch ein ganzer Kerl“, schrieb der Komponist selbstbewusst nach der Frankfurter Uraufführung am 27. November 1896 an seine Frau. Offenbar fühlte er sich auch ein wenig als bajuwarische Ausprägung von Nietzsches Menschenbild.
(Text: Matthias Corvin)

Have WDR only recently started to upload performances? - because I haven't seen them before, and now I'm finding a cascade of excellent ones. Truly great performances, and here is yet another! I don't know that I have ever heard this score played so well, certainly not superior. The orchestra performs with a great sense of ensemble awareness, but also, when anyone gets a solo segment, the player proves to be an outstanding soloist! Not only exhilarating performances, but superbly captured with excellent sound and video engineering - and presumably at least one producer who can read the score. As a consequence, we, the viewers, are also given intelligently orchestrated camera work to complete a trio of qualities that make the performance live for the viewer (audio engineering, vision quality, score-orientated direction) - not to forget the little finishing touches such as labels for the sections of a work etc. So WDR - thank you. [PS. My one complaint. The applause is rapidly faded out. Sharing the applause is an important part of sharing performances on KZbin, it brings the viewer a step closer to feeling like being there.

I've recently seen a summary of Nietzsche's Philosophy; I now understand and can better appreciate the rest of the piece especially the quiet end which was very difficult to comprehend at first hearing. Exciting watching an old orchestra and conductor favorite perform this famous piece. I remember watching the first time this livestreamed when the cymbal player had me jump at 1:16; that moment had me shocked in amazement. Thank you WDR!

@@staffanolofsson8201 So, we have him in common as one of our favorite composers. I know the Metamorphosen and like them, but my favorite work of him is hands down the Alpensinfonie and his songs. Maybe I'm biased because I grew up in sight of the Alps not far from Strauss' home town, Garmisch. And I had the great luck to hear Jessye Norman with the "Vier letzte Lieder" in Munich with Celibidache.

"Also sprach Zarathustra" , this means: THEN . . . . . . . Zarathustra SAID ! Richard Strauss composed this monumental introduction - as far as my humble opinion permits - to express magnifiscently a world (unique catastrophical situation), suddenly interrupted by a divine creature (Nietsche´s Zarathustra). Modern versions (including this one) seem to forget this priviledge, choosing a too quick TEMPO, missing a "Maestoso", as former conductors like: Arthur Rodzinski - Sergei Kousevitzky and even Arthur Stokowsky performed long ago !

Auch wenn es hier vielleicht anders wirkt, die Musiker:innen schauen abwechselnd sowohl in die Noten als auch auf den Dirigenten. 😊 So können sie den Noten auf dem Blatt folgen und bekommen gleichzeitig von dem Dirigenten z.B. Einsätze, Tempo und Dynamik angegeben.
