Gurrelieder is a gigantic, post-Wagnerian cantata that, in retrospect, seems like the terminus ante quem for Romanticism in music, beyond which further elaboration or intensity was surely impossible, and led surely if not inevitably to the Expressionism which the prodigious Schoenberg felt compelled to explore in works such as Erwartung, and thence, infamously, to the 12-tone system of musical composition from which, at least superficially, the work appears so distant in form and idiom.
The composer was just 26 when he began work on a song-cycle, which in its fully orchestrated form became the first part of Gurrelieder, based on a poem within a novel by the Danish novelist, naturalist and atheist Jens Peter Jacobsen, which the author in turn had based on folk-legends of the medieval King Waldemar - who, having taken a mistress, Tove, is driven to bitter madness by Tove's murder at the behest of his wife, condemns God and is in turn condemned to terrorise the land in ghostly form with his band of vassals until the passing of the seasons and the rising of the sun bestows the kind of redemption offered to the Flying Dutchman.

What sensual music! As if Mahler, Wagner, Strauss and Debussy would have sat together. And this recording is truly second to none.

Bravo Herbert Kegel.

I've just started to listen to shoenberg. Fantastic

Thank you! Brilliant indeed.

[@carlosmontes6568]

About feeling the thrill in between,.. Exultant....🎼🎼🎼😘

[@CASheePrincess]

Merci!!

[@MegaCirse]

Schoenberg dans sa période tonale était sous la double influence de Wagner et de Brahms - que l'on peut retrouver ici. Il explore la tonalité jusqu'à ses limites, puis décide après bien des hésitations d'utiliser l'atonalité, qu'il structure ensuite par le sérialisme. Ici, nous sommes au début du processus et avons un poème symphonique très émouvant pour la formation de chambre 🥸

[@mrJohnDesiderio]

Thank you!

[@CASheePrincess]

El cantante es un ténor de voz grave,no hace los agudos esos que rompen los oidos a vécés ,es suave lindo,gracias

[@blancadelgado3129]

Gracias...que suavidad... Que delicadeza de música

[@Quinceps]

Hasta que se pone bien loca! :)

[@CASheePrincess]

Je vous aime!!!

[@IvanGreindl]

A brilliant performance of this marvelous masterwork. Thank you for sharing. (B.T.W., I wonder where to find an English or French translation of the original Danish text; if someone could help, I'd be really grateful.)

[@LudwigvonDrake]

If English translation from German text is sufficient, they are both available at the Brilliant Classics' website. Go search "Gurrelieder" and you can download the leaflet.

[@stevenseward1557]

One of my top 5 all-time greatest pieces of music! Great rendition, though I think Waldemar's and Tove's voices were slightly weak.

[@davidjohnzenocollins]

Oh, my gosh! Arnold Schoenberg, the twelve-tone madman, actually composed beautiful music! Who would have guessed! Actually, after 20 minutes, it's not that beautiful. i can't listen to all two hours of this. Sorry.
