- Colorized (with AI) video of Kirsten Flagstad singing Die Walküre by RIchard Wagner.
In 1998 I composed one of my best pieces after watching her documentary. If you like to hear it, it's on / winterchill-in-the-hil...

Amazing. I wish I'd been alive then to hear her in person.
Imagine to hear this on the first chair!
The greatest singer of the 20th century
One of the greatest singers of the 20th century.
Thank you for posting. I feel so fortunate to be able to hear and see this amazing lady. Gave me goosebumps.
Wonderful, wonderful 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Beautiful singing!
Gorgeous!
Here you have a real germanic goddess . NO effort, that came out quite naturally
By the way she was Norwegian and not German...In the Ring is not really Germsn
The rootd, Edda, are in Norway and north...
Esta filmación es de una película ajena a esta aria, protagonizada por Bob Hope, el presentador que aparece en este vídeo. Hermosa interpretación. (14 . VII . 2024).
Magnificent!
@@gr__mskVery different breeds
This is so great! Thank you!
Wooooooow!!! Beautifuuuul!
Шикарно! Высший пилотаж
Today....this would be considered anachronistic high camp😅
High camp, really, you do know this is from Wagner's Ring ? Still performed all over the world?
She is singing, but in a lower register. Afterwards she sang full on in the dubbing stage. Hollywood did this frequently, they didn't want the singers to show strain in their appearances.
pippofan you are correct. Almost all Hollywood movies were lip-synced after 1932. There are no videos of Flagstad singing “live”, alas.
I very much doubt that Flagstad would show any strain when singing, even if they would have made live videos of her singing - when you sing like that, there can be no strain!
Singing is hard work
@@richarddelguidice6416 yes it is! but on the inside, not on the outside 🙂
No wonder she's able to sing so relaxed and cheerful looking! Those notes call for major stank face to produce irt! 😂
É considerada maior intérprete de Wagner ?
Si
Is she singing live here or is it a recording with her lipsyncing? Thanks for the clip.
If she's miming, she's lip synced the house down!
She's lip-synching.
She's singing live.
Far too exact for being synced.
Now I’ve been convinced that Flagstad is indeed singing live. I had never seen another clip of her singing live, and it seemed to me she was singing too effortlessly to be singing live, especially this scene. I have never seen another soprano sing this with such easiness. She was such an incredible soprano. For me, she’s the greatest Wagnerian soprano that the world has ever heard.
Noticed there were no ladies playing in the orchestra. Things have come a long way since.
You mean everything fell apart, right ?
@@fan2jnrcNo, he meant things have come a long way
No one cares.
I bet precious few of the men were gentlemen either!
@@syncopate50That's a bit of a sweeping presumption 😅
I know she wasn't the most spellbinding actress, but this seems lipsynced over a soundtrack.
Yeah it was in a movie.
Before I heard her in a Handel Messiah role = rather mediocre /not really her stuff. But in those wagner roles she is a perfect match - her rather hard norse accent in this case supports interpretation there. Norse shield maiden singing Handel mellow role about jesus - nope! Norse shield maiden singing Wagner shield maiden - definetively yess!
Truly a parody of what classical music public public was...😊 so American, the announcer...😅
That's what I thought. It looks ridiculous
I think anything that gets classical music before the public is positive.
It’s Bob Hope. He was a superstar.
