Strauss: Arabella / Fleming · Hampson · Thielemann · Berliner Philharmoniker

[@Peppi94]

I wish we could've heard the audience's response to this beautiful piece. To me, that's part of the magic - to share how they feel about the magic of what they've just heard.

[@nevillemignot1681]

I just love at one of the Staussien the tricks is that the higher pitched strings , come over the existing melody.

[@angelajowichewich8062]

What a great performance. I can't stop listening to this. Bravi Renée and Thomas❤️💗💖💕

[@frogmouth]

[@belcantoarias853]

Pure eternal beauty … Thank you.

[@Altonahh10]

Strauss´ music is in best hands with Thielemann and a superb orchestra such as the Berlin oder Vienna Philharmonics. Thanks for posting

[@jamesghani]

If there were a melody to perfect human chemistry ... it is to be found here. Sublime.

[@srr10]

Another unforgettably great moment from the Digital Concert Hall....

[@breen252]

Wonderful piece of music, brilliantly performed, and by two of my favourite performers.

[@bianchiviolin]

I have listened to this clip far too many times. But, it is so beautiful and it reminds me of so much of this fabulous opera. Please, when can I see this opera again?

[@Rocca53]

Da kann man nur weinen vor Glück !!

[@KennethConway]

Berlin: unbelievably gorgeous playing.

[@jensgerhardvonderfamilieti5055]

Ich habe schluchzend und tönend geweint (oder hier passender geheult. Obgleich ich das Wort eigentlich nicht mag, aber hier passt es, denn in dem Wort ist mehr Ton und ich war einfach laut. Insofern, finde ich, passt es hier besser.) Ich war (und bin) tief ergriffen von der Darbietung. Und heilfroh nicht live dabei gewesen zu sein, weil ich, wie gesagt, mit meinem Getöne den Gesang übertönt hätte. Ganz großartig! Für mich ein Erlebnis!! Ich bin noch ganz gerührt! Und ich hatte schon mehrere andere gute Interpretationen (Kiri Te Kanawa (wundervoll)& Wolfgang Brendel (hier für mich nicht überzeugend), Annelise Rothenberger und Herman Prey, Gundula Janowitz und Bernd Weikl (berührend) gehört an dem Abend, weil mir durch Zufall diese Oper zugespielt wurde... Keine hat mich so tief ergriffen, dass ich wahllos dahin schluchzte, jankte und heulte... Wahnsinn!! Ich bin total begeistert!

[@stall-schoepke]

This is one of the most beautiful music pieces in the world! Could listen on hours. When I was a kid, I had a record-player which I made to replay by pushing a match in the corner of the play-button. Would do it with this piece as well. A shame, I can't listen to Annelise Rothenberger. That is even with more feeling...

[@davebournemouth]

The very best, their voices suit each other so perfectly, you cant get any better than this.

[@Yachieightthousand]

Yay, I was listing to her on CBC!!!!

[@Wandgold]

Wenn ich es richtig gehört habe ( es weicht minimal vom Originaltext ab): Sie: Und du wirst mein Gebieter sein und ich dir untertan dein Haus wird mein Haus sein, in deinem Grab will ich mit dir begraben sein So gebe ich mich dir auf Zeit und Ewigkeit Er: Meine Allerschönste! In dieser Stunde erhöhe ich dich, und wähle dich zu meiner Frau und wo ich der Herr bin, wirst du die Herrin sein und wirst gebieten, wo ich der Gebieter bin

[@fessdoizeau]

Question about the brass piece that opens this concert. Can anyone tell me who's playing 2nd tuba to Alexander Von Puttkamer? Thanks!

[@LeeCameron]

check out Lisa della Casa too!!

[@vrfvfdcdvgtre2369]

Please, do see the interpretation of the lesser known Kammersängerin Mimi Coertse.

[@Arkeus999]

Olay ne hacı

[@beethoventico]

those three...

[@kenoverbay-baker4653]

I have been a fan of Renee Fleming's for years, but I much prefer the Gundula Janowitz and Bernd Weikl version of this.

[@teolinchen]

[@operacat1]

But Hampson IS the right Mandryka - could have been written for him!!

[@davy91101]

Incredibly beautiful and I am not one of Renee;s greatest fan. Alas when they taped the performance ini Zurich Hampson was ill and his replacement, Morton Frank Larsen, was weak and the conducting left a lot to be desired.. Fleming should have another go at this opera, get the right Mandryka and Thielemann should conduct.

[@auguryone]

This is sung and played beautifully and all that, but is so musically out of context to the storyline you may not sense what came before or where it's going. It's played like a stand alone 'art song'. Not my favorite. Lisen to the strings in the last 10 bars in other performances.

[@papagen00]

Fleming's Arabella is fine but can't hold a candle to Lisa Della Casa.
