One of the best “Master Classes” On The Ring I have ever heard. I have followed The Ring for more than 40 years, and just tonight invited a friend who knew nothing about Wagner for a cocktail to hear this presentation. Magnificent. Thank you for a wonderful program. I think I may have created a new Wagner fan!
Orchestras love playing this music...

Hurray! Nice job. Thanks.
Das hat mir die Augen bzw. die Ohren geöffnet für Wagners geniale Musik. Amazing, wonderful, epic… Thank you, Brett, and the fabulous Colorado Symphony.
Es gibt auf Spotify eine 2 Stunden 20 Minuten lange Einführung in Wagners Leitmotive von Deryck Cooke, die damals zusammen mit dem Solti-Ring veröffentlicht wurde und für die Solti und die Wiener sogar extra Musikbeispiele eingespielt haben.
Für mich der absolute Goldstandard, weil Cooke auch die Beziehungen der Motive zueinander erklärt. Zum Beispiel wie das Ring-Motiv und das Walhall-Motiv aus der selben Kernzelle bestehen, weil es um Macht geht.
@@Quotenwagnerianer Danke für den Hinweis. Werde ich mir anschauen.
Wagner made sublime music (no, more than sublime, i'm not a big fan of opera in common, but Wagner's music and storylines are unsurpassed), which is played here with a lot of love and craftsmanship. With a very skilled, engaged, conductor who is very involved with this music and gives an excellent explanation, so that simple souls :) like me can enjoy it even more. Thanks for posting. I wish you made a DVD out of this and the final concert!!!
More, more of this kind of performances, please!
Beautiful music, smart analysis, and he is a wonderful speaker as well! Excellent.
Very helpful, just the right amount of detail for now. Such beautiful music.
So glad you enjoyed, Barbara!
Super,DANKESCHÖN😃👍🙏
World class, thank you
Many many thanks, mille mercis, muchísimas gracias, for this beautiful moment (from a Wagner lover, Parisian by birth and by love, now living in Seville)
This is great. Thank you.
Baby Ring Head checking in 👼 🤔
Wonderful intro to this legend. What have I wandered in to?
🎶😏💜🎶

Se houvesse mais concertos explicativos como esse, os amantes da música clássica seriam imensamente beneficiados e aumentados. Amei, amei

I guess Im kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good site to stream newly released tv shows online?
@Holden Crew thank you, I signed up and it seems like a nice service :) I appreciate it!!
@Leonardo Parker No problem :)
@@leonardoparker1364 nice scam
Une autre précision : un "Leitmotiv" très important aurait pu aussi être mentionné : "L 'épée " !!! Mais globalement ,cela demeure une prestation fort intéressante !!!!
22:20
Très intéressant ( bien qu'incomplet concernant les "Leitmotive " ) ....L'orthographe de certains noms de personnages dans les sous-titres est souvent très ...fantaisiste !!!!!
Nice introduction, though. Just enough to get me hooked.
Whimsical, indeed 😉
The subtitles are auto generated :o) Always a mess!
Performed with profound knowledge and a lot of love for the music and the audience, you cannot imagine a better tutor for the ring than Brett Mitchell.
Don't miss Brett Mitchell's also great "Gods and Monsters: The Musical Journey of Wagner's Ring Cycle" czcams.com/video/RfhF0spEr8U/video.html
Ring fan, Heinz
Thank you so much for the lovely compliment - so glad you enjoyed!
Big daddy oh wow cool man
👍
That crossfade tho
6:30ish
Transpose Wagner to the late 20th century and imagine him scoring, oh I don't know... the marvel universe?
Siegfried: 20:21
Dragon: 20:48
Fight: 21:22
Awful lot of talking for a video titled 'The Ring Without Words'.
BAD CONDUCTOR
Why that?
Yeah... I don't think that's a good sum up of either the music or the plot.
Simple for beginners
It's more to explore the meaning of the leitmotifs, which as a newbie to opera and Das Nibelung is extremely helpful.
The Ring without Words but all he does is talk (OVER the music even)
This was the introduction. After the break the "ring without words" was performed - it was stated at the end of the video.
