Werner Herzog’s groundbreaking approach to film has always included a similar outlook when it comes to music. Despite music not becoming a part of his life till later on, Herzog has a fine ear - from his extensive collaborations with Krautrock icons Popul Vuh and cellist Ernst Reijseger to the use of classical and folk music.
The Red Bull Music Academy is a global music institution committed to fostering creativity in music. We celebrate music, its culture, and the transformative minds behind it. Begun in 1998, the Academy has taken the core principles that underlie its annual workshop for selected participants and applied this curatorial approach to events, lectures, and city-wide festivals throughout the year.

i met him at my grocery store. he was very nice and made sure to introduce his son to me....love his work.
Srithor you don't think Herzog meets random people? Lol. Get a grip man.
Srithor you're just not making a point at all, dude.
@Srithor "NNNNOOOOOOO I MUST CATEGORICALLY DENY THAT THIS SPECIFIC PERSON HAS EVER MET HERZOG BECAUSE STATISTICALLY SPEAKING IT'S UNLIKELY, GAWDDD!!!!!!"
If Werner Herzog told you a good night story, you would never wake up
Love it!
That is SO funny
... k.o. Chuck Norris
There is actually a video of him reading “go to fuck to sleep” the children’s good night story on CZcams, it’s how I died
The voice of the century
About a third of the way in, Herzog starts playing all the hits, anecdote-wise, and he's a delight as usual.
One of my absolute favourite humans, a magnificent man
saw him give a talk in dublin recently....definitely something ill never forget....fascinating guy
it's cool how many clips werner asks to be pulled up, he's really in love with the things he's captured and the life behind them
Bravo Werner ! Thank you for speaking with me in Memphis.
Dosnt work without the clips , which is a shame I was looking forward to he is intriguing.
What an eccentric man.
I’m in agreement. Really want to see the clips!
Thank You very much!
Brilliant as usual.......................!
It is amazing how much his own childhood embodies the character of Zek in Jack Reacher
He's sooooo awesome OMG
Please show the videos that are presented by the presenter at the venue too.
Only in that way can the online viewer connect to this whole interview with the greatest living legendary documentory filmmaker God
Werner doesn't own the material, thus the problem. Lawyers.
A documentary on Hieronymous Bosch is tailor made for Herzog.
Oh yes, Bosch is like the 15th century version of Herzog. I mean, they're both crazy...
Please please please find a way to show what they are talking about/listening too...
Herzog and Fricke used to paly football after an argument about soundtracks, they played in a very violent way, Herzog insist about "read, read" and Fricke about "meditation".
Where can we watch what was showed???
You can watch much of it in the film Salt And Fire, Little Dieter Needs To Fly and other Herzog Films.
This was possibly the most interesting Herzog interview; his use of music. His use of music is phenomenal, but the interviewer doesn't delve into anything! There's no relation between music and emotion in reference to the characters. Herzog's use of music is sublime but the interviewer just fires out "Tell me about... " time after time. Not one mention of Richard Thompson's work in Grizzly Man, the only reference to Guesaldo is brought up by himself.... Interviewer not up to the sans level as his guest.
The absence of clips was frustrating but a phenomenal conversation nonetheless ✌️
cresheeendoo
42:13 best part 😂
So bizarre listening to Werner Herzog speak about Popol Vuh & Florian Fricke. I was a teen and got heavily into Krautrock in the early 70’s.
I don't think it's so bizarre considering Fricke/Vuh scored so many of his best films... I'm a big fan of krautrock myself tho, havent watched this yet but hoping to hear Herzog namedrop other german acts of the time. Love Can, Neu!, Kraftwerk, Faust, Harmonia etc etc
There's some beautiful popol vuh tracks that ive heard in Werner Herzog documentaries or films..I can't remember which but I recognised it when I heard it
@@hughiedavies6069 He did several others, but Aguirre, Heart of Glass, and Nosferatu are wonderful FF soundtracks.
@@brianfergus839 yeah thanks I've seen them . 🙂
what was the name of the printmaker/ artist mentioned at the beginning? couldn't catch the name.
Hercules Seghens
seghers! oops
@@domcamella9408 vey kind thank you Dom!
Well done host, let people speak, especially if they have something interesting to say and even more so when their name is Werner Herzog.
7:30 you can watch a clip of the installation here: czcams.com/video/44w9EhRPoXA/video.html
@7:28 WH "can we show the first clip.." and its been edited out. Its important enough for Werner Herzog to highlight and share but Red Bull Music Academy is like " naar" delete, not important.
Posting this without all the examples he is talking about is kinda pointless
Why are the most important things cut out - the video and audio examples? ...without them it's useless to listen the conversation
Dose he mention CAN? if so where
I have the opportunity to interview him
Bird of Paradise: the naming of birds living mainly in New Guinea and neighboring islands. They are noted for their beauty and splendor of their plumage, but in all areas very much like the crow family. They are rather small bids. The beauty only belongs to the male birds, and only to them when they are vrown. They are active and feed mainly on insects, though one feeds on the nector of flowers. The largest great bird of paradise is the largest kind, measuring a foot and a half in length. From beneath the wings of the males, there springs on each side a rich tuft of long plumes, sometimes two feet long. These colors are so gorgeous, varying from golden red to blackest violet. Their note is large and shrill.
The lesser bird of paradise is smaller and is much used for the ladies' head dresses . The two middle feathers of the red bird of paradise are lengthened into stiff black bands about twenty-two inches long, and those of the king bird of paradise into two wire-like shafts and six inches long, with round green disks at the ends. The magnificent blue tail of paradise of the long-tailed is about two feet long. These beautiful birds form quite an aticle of trade where they once were abound. They were not very well known until the voyage of A.K. Wallace in 1857, but many fables have been told about them, and they have been sacred with some nations.
Thank you, Werner Hertzog, for your artistry.
🙏❤️🌏🌿🕊🎵🎶🎵
Noided
red bull amplifies sounds for sure.
I know what he means by the music has to create space..Brian eno's music for example creates space..space for the imagery.. its disappointing that whenever he plays something to the audience we don't get to hear it
42:04
Werner the visionary can't see why we can, will and must go to mars. Still love him!
He analogized going to Mars like locusts sweeping the earth and leaving for the next. A philisophical perspective indeed, however he did say to Musk in person that he wants to go to Mars to make a documentary.
He says "ahead of his time" like it's a good thing
Because it is. Perhaps not for the artist in question, but for the benefit of posterity and progeny. If artists worked solely in the interest of immediate recognition and praise, ambitious work would rarely see the light of day. Artists would become people-pleasers and their art would be reflective of such an ideal.
Yeah quality has to go through rejections and indifferences of jealous and envious less talented masses or less hard working with it. So yeah jealous peers and old heads have to die off to truly appreciate alot of advances.
I used to drink with his aulfella
Do internet dream? of himself?
Another example of why the host is unnecessary.
Iguanas and chickens.
Kissing cousins.
Rubbish without the actual excerpts/clips that were described but not shown here. Why bother put it on CZcams butchered? Poor show. Sorry Werner but Red Bull blew it. What bull.
They've been doing this for all the lectures since 2016 i think.
It really looses all context if you can't listen/watch the content that the lecturer wants to show.
Very annoying.
Probably has to do with copyright, not their fault.
Yeah, probably.
Yo, who this for real though? This shit boring as f. get Lil yachty or Migos on???
do a google search lmao this man is a living legend
Se hetki ku jäbä just lähti meiltä ja mä nään tän kommentin ja oon laittamas peukkuja alas ja nään kuka sen on kommentoinu. Hahahahahah.
The interview is meant for adults
You need to play the monkeys
