I can't believe this doesn't have more hits. It is very well conducted and executed. It also adds a dimension of visual stimuli.
Inspiring young musicians to outstanding achievement -- Janowski is a wonderful conductor!
Every time I hear this piece I immediately think of Excalibur
M Lawson That’s called branding. Amazing filmic moments supplanted with amazing music.
Mark Botello 👍
I know right 🙂
The best adaptation of Morte d'Arthur ever made and at Camlann--the best moment in the film!
Oddly enough the pre-production began as 'The Lord of The Rings'!
This music was used to magnificent effect in that film
Quelle esprit dans cette inoubliable composition de Wagner . C est incroyablement imager , on dirait qu’il raconte un tragédie avec tout ces coins invisibles .Bravo Maitre ❤
Una delle più belle esecuzioni di questo pezzo. Un continuo fluire senza enfasi ma trionfalmente eroico. Wagner lo avrebbe apprezzato, sicuramente! Complimenti al Direttore ma soprattutto all'Orchestra di giovani. Bravi!
It's also the piece Hitler and the remainers sat and solemnly listened to when he accepted all was lost.
Love the perfect crashing of the tympani and the very Wagnerian sounds of the Wagnertube herein! Wonderful!
Marek Janowski, einer der letzten Großmeister der deutschen Orchesterschule! Grandioso
Excellente interprétation, d'infimes erreurs sur la fin, excellents violons et clarinettes, la magie est à l'oeuvre
The beauty of this song... The French Horns... So sublime, so... magnificent!
I agree! Except for the "song" bit. This is a funeral march!
To be played at my funeral........
Can I come? I love this!
So be it!
@@pmjhns oh how big does one think one is, for such a wish? Bizarre.
@@emjdeckwitz6949 wouldn't be surprised that the "gods" walk among us. A few "heroes," that is. We sure do need them in 2020!
But you'll miss it!
"If a Boy pulls the Sword a Boy shall be King!" :)
Super duper...one of the best
Very nice, and well edited, too. I'm a big fan of Janowski.
One day a king will come and the sword will rise again
Reminds me of the Battle of Asgard in Knights Of The Zodiac. It gives me Odin and Polaris Hilda vibes.
Excellent !
Came here because Shazam ID’d the song for me after years of wondering. Originally heard it on a PBS FRONTLINE episode as the 1991 gulf war intro and credit theme.
Start at 0:11. A sublime interpretation.
Thanks for sharing it with us!
Great performance by the University Orchesta and by Janowski. If you like this go and buy the Dresden Ring on RCA with the Staatskapelle Dresden (Wagner's "Wunderharfe") under Janowski, it is great and does not cost much.
Overwhelming.Agift from the gods or Wagner or Janovski. All of them.
the land and the king are one!
Muchas gracias
not powerfull enough for me, thus very clean. Excellent to understand how all the instruments worked together! I have heard things i never pay attention to!
Incredible!
For a young orchestra, this is outstanding playing. Tempo is a bit on the fast side for me
..put it down to the impetuousness of youth, I shouldn't wonder.
Gran Janowski !
I think of the departure of the Berlin Orchestra in 1945.
I would like to conduct Sibelius Second Symphony with this orchestra
Excellent
Not technically the best one out there (horns a bit wobbly), but this is a beautiful way to show Gotterdammerung in action. Camera work is excellent, showing what is what in the music's composition. String section is amazing, as are oboe and bassoon...
Thank you!
thewwwdude they're students so I will forgive the little wobbles in the lower brass at the beginning.
Students. Not professionals. You should try the horn. Your comment is totally out of line.
ジークフリートの葬送行進曲、数ある葬送行進曲の中でもこの曲が一番重々しく響くが何故か明るく響き渡る。金管楽器の炸裂はさすがワーグナーだなぁと感じた。
lembranças do reno,,,, siegfrieds funeral,,,, lembranças de Koll,onde tive a oportunidade de viver a essencia de wagner
Majestuous!
If you want to be knocked off your socks, see Solti's rehearsal
EXACTLY!
It's a radio or LP recording session, that's why Solti overacts so much. All for the sake of precision. And he is wearing one of those terrible tracksuits we were still forced to wear when I was a kid.
@@joachimsaxer4812 My back story is that I had been listening to WAGNER - Tristan und Isolde: Prelude & Liebestod (Furtwängler/Flagstad) for months. This branched out into listening to other Isolde renditions. Finally, that regime led to the Solti rehearsal. You are right, When I viewed it in concert, Solti was considerably tamed down as was the orchestra.
What is a tracksuit?
@@joachimsaxer4812 What is a "tracksuit?" I found the public performance very tame: both the orchestra and Solti.
Love the Dark Majesty of this piece. Does seem a bit fast though. Prefer the one with Tennstadt conducting
stupendo che dire più
Excalibur ❤😂
Since when does the concert version start with the fate motive? I thought the official start is the piano timpani pounding. I never heard it performed differently. And it is also missing the concert ending.
Someone can tell me what are the notes the Cellos are doing between 1:37 and 1:45? I supose Is F, F-Sharp, G.
poderosa!!!
4:08 onwards - the brass is far too reticent - the motiv should come piercing through the texture,
Clearly
i agree. in the better recordings i've heard the brass pierce through the low strings like sunlight through a storm cloud, really waking you up for the flourish to come.
This is all about Xcalibur and not Hitler.
Neither actually. Nordic myth, Buddhism,Schopenhauer and Feuerbach.
does anyone else picture Berlin falling in 1945 when you hear this?
No. I picture what it was written for. A funeral procession in the moonlight of the greatest hero of german legend.
Trottel
Of course . This music has been written for THIS coming event .
No! Nothing to do.
Nope.
The first piece that comes to mind is Dies Irae by Mozart.
Xcalibur!
He is conducting the music, not the players !
Too fast, not intense as it should be, and some groups had a delay when entering the music. But they are young and are still learning it, and few can really understand Wagner.
For a young group, it was very good.
Ho sentito tante registrazioni. Nessuno mette coretto I trombone dopo le 9 note legato. Solo Toscanini!
This is very nice after a few puffs of fine indica . Who needs sherry when has fine kush ?
4:05
but where's astolfo
Difficile de mettre moins d'energie.
Effettivamente come marcia per il funerale di Siegfried è un mortorio....
The tempo is too fast at the climax.
agree - the + speed = - intensity
Hear the Interpretation from Sir George Solti, here in YT.
Will everybody please stop talking about Hitler? 😅
Unfortunately not, Hitler made Wagner (who would be called a right extremist today) his national composer. They go together, they represent the same view.
Wagner was not a "right extremist". He wasn't even conservative. This is what nationalists and nazis want you to believe. In fact Wagner was a liberal with a lot of sympathies for socialistic and anarchistic ideas. In the failed revolution of 1848/49 he fought for a democratic Germany.
He would have hated Hitler.
@@1967davidsrebrnik totally absurd. Wagner was a leftist. Despised despots and militarism.
@@Skarmo. Thank you for getting this right. So much stupidity afoot with the Hitler business. People love thinking in cliches.
@@Operafreak9 It isn't really feasible to categorize him with modern political terminology. Wagner was a great figure in the VÖLKISCH movement out of which the nazis arose. So please shut up.
Let play this at uncle joe Biden inauguration!
An idiot
Good playing. Poor conducting.
What do you mean 'poor conducting'? Not have as bad as your stupid comment. Do you know anything about conducting?
You do know this isn't Guitar Hero on the Xbox right?
Poor performance
