- The Valkyries are arriving at Bethanie Theatre on 9 November, 5:00pm. Their war cries are booming in the distance already! Have a look at "Ride of the Valkyries", one of the most famous scenes from Wagner's Die Walkure.
In what is expected to be a Wagnerian event for the ages, soprano Christine Goerke plays Brünnhilde, Wotan’s willful warrior daughter, who loses her immortality in opera’s most famous act of filial defiance. Tenor Stuart Skelton and soprano Eva-Maria Westbroek play the incestuous twins Siegmund and Sieglinde. Greer Grimsley sings Wotan. Philippe Jordan conducts.
萬眾期待的一場華格納盛宴，將由女高音克莉斯汀哥爾克 (Christine Goerke) 演繹沃坦的女兒布倫希爾德，在失去女武神資格的一幕可謂歌劇中違抗至親的著名經典。男高音斯圖亞特斯克爾頓 (Stuart Skelton) 和女高音艾娃瑪麗亞魏絲珀克 (Eva-Maria Westbroek) 則演出亂倫雙胞胎齊格蒙德和齊格林德。沃坦由格里爾格里斯利 (Greer Grimsley) 演唱，該劇由菲利浦約丹 (Philippe Jordan) 指揮。

Eight sopranos on the stage at one time with a full orchestra, singing Wagner - nothing better.
Me & the gals heading to the club after quarantine ends
This made me laugh out loud.
The problem with the way classical music is taught in schools, is it's completely divorced from its context: i.e. the actual play that it's the "soundtrack" to. It's like if 200 years from now, some teacher tried to teach children about Star Wars or Lord of the Rings just by playing them one background song from it, and then asked them to write an essay about what emotions we're supposed to be feeling from the music.
I bearly see any live music is americans operas i dont think they have the knowlage of opera like europens do
Worst is divorcing Stravinsky’s ballet music from the ballets. I could not stand it for any more than three minutes. Then I saw the ballets and loved the music.
Slight difference in your example. Lord Of The Rings is a literary series before the movies.
Funny thing is you do not need to go so far into the future just look at the book banning of today, /cough "To Kill A Mocking Bird" /cough.
Well I just found out about this through Brigitte Kaandorp and look it up like I would look up any movie. I am not impressed by incest and wouldn't know what kind of emotions I would have about that. And movies these days the best part is the soundtrack. Just like this play...
what an idiotic post
I don’t care if it’s silly they are riding planks. The music is amazing, the costumes are great, and the singers amazing and beautiful.
What's silly is that they ride planks in Walkure and Brunhilde rides a puppet horse in Gotterdammerung a few days later.
It is an fantastic staging I think! With strage! The riding planks I guess, symbolizing the PIANO KEYS!!!!!! smart and funny done this idea! Composers used the Piano by the way for their compositions!
@@elsalohengrin7777 Symbolizing piano keys? The fabric covered slabs are all black. Methinks you're reaching.
🎶What have I done?
I killed da wabbit! 🎵
OMG!
Whoa!
Wonderful to see Wendy Bryn Harmer as Ortlinde once again!
My god that was great.
I wish I could have been there in person! So awesome!
I was just searching for the song and found this! Very surprising and hilarious. you can see the actresses are having a lot of fun doing this short play.
I don't know about hilarious, but thrilling, certainly.
By all accounts they weren't thrilled, they were terrified they would fall!
Short? The Ring is about 16 hours long.
My theme song! Outstanding ladies!
I used to play opera videos like this one at lunchtime for my captive audience 7th graders. I think the boys liked the decolletage, if not the music.
I think they liked the music. The adult material they all access makes any artistic sexual stimulus boring.
Not all of those boys were titillated by ladies' cleavage.
Elmer Foot. 'Kill the wapet'. Is where I first time heard this as a kid
For years I'd disliked opera. I am now converted.
As a fellow Opera fan, I welcome you to the club!
I invite you to check out the old school stuff
Theres Opera then theres Wagner. I'm not a fan of Opera. I love Wagner.
This is so far the best and most fun Performance of the Walkürenritt I've seen. Wonderful. I love the Met.
This was so brilliant and exciting for me!
I only wish the horses were more delineated.
말로 표현하기 힘든 연출 너무 멋있어요 메트... 모든게 완벽함
English translation (with deep respect): "The directing is hard to express in words. It's so cool. Matt... Everything is perfect."
💙 Ride of the Valkyries!!! 🎶
I demand horses! (Sopranos are no substitute!)
They are some strapping valkyries.
beautiful
After hearing this piece with the libretti, hearing it without sounds incomplete
Great
The ladies seem to be having a good time. I guess this is as close as you can get to having them ride real horses.
Some kind of merry go round might have been better. Not a cheery one like the countryside scene from Mary Poppins, of course.
Géniale mise en scène ,à la fois moderne et fidèle à l'esprit de l'oeuvre du maître de Bayreuth !!! ( Ces structures en bois qui se balancent , c'est quand même beaucoup mieux que d"authentiques chevaux !!! ) ...
Wonderfully sung mostly - staging not so sure ?
am i the only one thinking the last two should have stayed up on patrol? :P
3:18 “Hahahahahahaha!”
She’s So Happy.
Very Happy
Spears for killin' da wabbit! 😈
I Like It!
0:23 Hi Girls!
What’s Up Ladies!
How You Doin Up There?!
You Girls Are My Favorite!
Did Wagner write two versions? One with the singers, and one without? The music seems different.
Yep! He prepared concert versions of various orchestral sections of the operas.
*Bugs Bunny Has Left The Chat*
Ammazza che sbucia 😪
Deconstruction of beauty.
I never where this song or why opera is always shown as a woman with Viking hat
Well, Wagner's big piece of opera, The Ring of the Nibelungen, is a retelling of some of Norse mythology, which features a lot of women in Viking hats. Well, parts of it do, anyway. Overall, The Ring of the Nibelungen shows how the gods came into existence, conjured from our need for them.
You never where this song?
Some kind of a light projection might be an improvement? Maybe they thought about it and it didn’t work. It’s a complicated thing to pull these productions off. It’s amazing they happen at all.

Holy crap, this is FAST! And the ridiculous staging sucks all the excitement out of music. Pity.
apocalypse now (:
I love the smell of napalm in the morning.
Heck Yeah!
i rather like the version of 2012. Many of the singers are the same but the performance is not as good
how does this performance depict the valkyries and their part in norse mythology
They're not really strictly portraying their Norse mythology inspiration. This is just Wagner reimagining it...
@@axelpatrickb.pingol3228 and all are free to do whatever they wish to Wagner!
@@florafurioso9197 or Mozart, Shakespeare, Molière, you name it
The Walkure (Valkyries) are flying through the air looking for the battle. They swoop down and collect the souls of the heroes who died in battle to bring them to Valhalla (sort of Heaven). There they will feast and carouse until Ragnarök, when the dead will come alive again and fight the giants to the finish, ending the world. If I'm not mistaken. That's the mythology, and here Wagner is imagining the dialogue and the set of events.
Successfully.
Mr Mustache favorite song
Why couldn't they at least put horse heads on the boards? I know the boards are supposed to be abstract so we can imagine the horses, but they look too much like goofy playground see-saws to be abstract. This ruins the whole visual production for despite the strong musical performances.
Yeah it looks like they’re riding on a modern art installation
I think you are the goofy one
What?! No helicopters?
How would they slide down and off if there was a horse's head at the end of boards?
Epic and belic, as the Nazis liked it. Me too! Music is NOT politics, it's Art!
Ma che cazzo salutano?
This ain't no Beyoncé
Beyoncé doesn’t hold a candle to this performance
yeah, it's better
That is absolutely horrible, total waste of perfectly good music.
