So true. In Bayreuth, they did an interesting experiment in the 80s. They asked children between 4-8 years to watch the beginning of the „Walküre“ ,a few pictures, listen to the music and describe the story. They were all pretty good, but one girl (who had never been exposed to opera before) described the story so well that it was really astonishing

@@ToxicTurtleIsMad I was merely expressing my enthusiasm and joy in hearing this electrifying music, and compared it to the joy I also feel listening to some of Philip Glass’s music. That isn’t an insult to Wagner’s genius. I have loved Wagner ever since the week I spent in the London Coliseum, day and night, in 1970, putting up Ralph Koltai’s sets for Reginald Goodall’s Ring Cycle. It was a wonderful experience being in the midst of rehearsals, which were going on simultaneously. You can see the sets we made on the front cover of this video. kzitem.info/news/bejne/zq95sqWQcqumgag

Maybe he had a cough drop because he didn't want to cough and thereby partly ruin that perfect performance. Luckily the audiences today are mostly well-hydrated and doesn't make a sport of coughing down any piece as in the after-WW2 era. And btw he looks extremely concentrated, focussed and professional. If all performances were vibrant like this, I wouldn't mind if everybody would have his candy. It is the result that counts.

Both of them use a similar approach to represent the sense of rain, but here Wagner uses the fast crescendos with accents to imitate that effect that you get with really heavy rail, then couples it with the "anxious fleeing" footsteps (of Siegmund) and the Thunder (of Wotan) Leit Motif in the horns "hounding" him to set a much more pyschologically complex scene than that of Beethoven's.

Non male gli archi (a parte la suprema maleducazione del violinista),ma l'orchestrazione non è il massimo:da quando entrano(1.36),gli ottoni non son affatto bilanciati col resto dell'orchestra.La loro presenza infatti,in concomitanza con le impennate dei violini nel registro acuto,deve essere predominante, come dei flashes! In effetti essi dipingono proprio la tempesta sotto cui sta fuggendo Sigmund! Se nell'orchestrazione si fanno risuonare così timidamente, si perde un sacco di fascino!
