This recording of Wyn Moris is the best. At 33’ it is the longest and the one that conveys the operatic scope of this piece which already has all the grandeur of Wagner’s great operas to come !
Pour moi, c'est une découverte magnifique, rappelant en effet les choeurs de «Tannhaüser», de «Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg» ou de «Parsifal». Le Maître avait certainement un attachement particulier à la musique de choeur.
...thanks to you, dear Uli, it's the first time I listen to this splendid and mistic piece. No wonder to Wagner the human voice was the more perfect instrument...
Maravillosa obra !!!! Al igual que mi amigo y tocayo, también tuve el honor de haber integrado ese coro y haber cantado tan linda versión con la Filarmónica de Buenos Aires. Guardo en mi corazón el deseo de repetir esa experiencia alguna vez.
Discovered the score of this in Travis and Emery yesterday (needless to say... purchased also!) So glad there is a (good) recording of the work.... now to find 40+ male voices with perfect intonation!
What a glorious ending. This is the first time in 17 years I've ever heard it performed with voice and full orchestra. All this time I've been listening to a US Marine Band recording, which sounds nice but very silly compared to this. Now I can understand what Wagner was trying to convey in the music.
This group has vocal chords of high-alloy steel - amazing! As to German pronunciation: this is a bunch of English-speakers "well drilled" in Deutsch, but not quite the real thing, right???
@DerHarmonist yes, I think so. Ich habe das Werk vor ca. 27 Jahren zusammen mit dem MGV "Harminie" Lindenholzhausen und dem MGV "Eintracht" 1874 Weißenthurm anlässlich unseres 110-jährigen Jubiläums mitgesungen (Orchester: Siegerlandorchester). Wir sangen es auch viel schneller - Aufführungsdauer: ca. 22 Min. Ich habe davon eine mp3-Aufnahme (Amateuraufnahme). Deshalb weiß ich nicht, ob ich sie auf youtube einstellen soll.
@DerHarmonist Ich habe von unserer damaligen Jubiläumsveranstaltung (1984) eine unprofessionelle, aber durchaus hörenswerte mp3-Version. Bist Du als Sangesbruder daran interessiert? Eure CD würde mich auch interessieren.
Very, very difficult and extremely taxing to sing. There's much more to it than meets the ear... . Nevertheless brilliantly executed. Thank you for posting.
This choir has so much depth and power

Maravillosa música !!!!!
Tuve la suerte de cantarla en el Teatro Colon en 1992, con el Coro de la Asociación Wagneriana de Buenos Aires
Ich hab das gestern in der Dresdner Frauenkirche gesungen...wunderbarer Klang von den Emporen aus!

After I had heard this piece of Wagner first time in my life, I started loving his music. He goes so deeply into the spirit.

Oui excellente interprétation de cette œuvre peu connue du Maître !
Splendida esecuzione di musica potente e poetica

Should be performed more often. Thank you for uploading it.
Fantastico! Splendido!
Bellissima pagina ed esecuzione.
WAGNER "Das Liebesmahl der Apostel": Am 20. und 21. Juli 2013 auch in Würzburg zu hören.
je vous salue m. wagner
Había dejado este disco y no me volvió. Muchísimas gracias, porque lo necesitaba.
Es algo tan pequeño y tan grande! Gracias mil Gioiellidellamusica
I didn't know this work existed.
That's because you don't read your Bruckner Journal thoroughly....

5:30: Von heir teilt sich den ganze chor Jünger in drei besondere Chöre
11:23 Langsam mit Würde
15:56 Sehr langsam
18:18 Langsam und sehr getragen
Thanks for posting this. I had never heard of this work. I'll have to see if I can find the lyrics.
erlichheit!

It must be very tough for the men's chorus to sing capella for such an extended period, especially with Wagner's chromtic harmonies .
@DerHarmonist

Lad es unbedingt hoch!
Vorläufer für den Pilgerchor aus Tannhäuser?
Yes.
To my ears, it sounds like two choruses singing to each other in some passages.
Any comments?
Even three choruses at some moments!
12 part mens chorus with full orchestra. Nobody ever accused Wagner of writing simply
