Die letzten Sekunden dieses wundervollen Konzertes rühren einen zu Tränen. Maestro Masur war sichtlich ergriffen und Julia Varady hat es wohl wahrgenommen. Ihre Gestik und Kopfhaltung bezeugen es. Fand es großartig und sehr ergreifend!
Ich liebe Richard Strauss...ein so genialer Meister, der der Welt sooooo viel wunderschöne Musik hinterlassen hat❤...Danke, Richard Strauss !!! und danke an die fantastische Julia Varady und dem genialen Dirigat vom Kurt Masur und last but not least dem Gewandhausorchester....fantastisch begleitet....danke fürs posten
Unglaublich, welchen feinen Klangteppich Kurt Masur der Sopranistin ausbreitet. Hier kommt es neben perfekter Orchesterleistung und der einzelnen Soli darauf an, den richtigen Ton zu finden zwischen lautmalerischer Blumenpracht und der Transzendenz im letzten Lied. Julia Varady singt auswendig,sie gestaltet die einzelnen Gesänge dynamisch abgestuft, ohne Manierismen, mit grossartiger Klangausladung ihres Soprans. Vielen Dank für das Video.
She's such a commanding presence, a Music Goddess. The sheer panache with which she negotiates the more treacherous transitions, from chest to head voice and back, always keeping a limpid and purposeful sense of direction in the musical line... it's mesmerizing. Brava, Julia Varady. How lucky we are to have access to these and other documents of her honorable and generous legacy.
Sin duda, pero sin duda DE LAS MEJORES INTERPRETACIONES de estas canciones, no sólo una mas. Varady, Masur, la Gewandhaus y el violín solista en una rendición sublime. EN VIVO. Aquí no hay retoques, señoras y señores. Esto es belleza pura. Julia es una artista de otras esferas. Una voz única. Técnica longeva e ïntegra. Basta escucharla en Verdi, Strauss, Mozart, Puccini o Beethoven, etc. Y te das cuenta que es IMPACTANTE. Y aquí estas canciones superbas cantadas por una voz superlativa. La voz fluye con la fuerza de un arroyo cristalino en primavera. Canta con la madurez de una mujer, femenina, fuerte, intensa, entregada al amor por lo transfigurado del arte, lo que nos lleva desde la experiencia humana enclavada en la tierra a un nivel superior de trascendente belleza. Todo eso y mas es Varady aquí en estas canciones vertidas de una manera magistral (engamada con Masur y su orquesta). Una gloria. (y así como sucedió con M. Price, tampoco Varady no tuvo suerte de haberlas grabado en estudio, al menos eso creo, una pena). ¡BRAVA!
Wow! Julia Varady's musical presense is remarkable! Every nuance of the Strauss songs was intricately entwined in such musicology - I am left breathless but grateful, in that I have heard something extraordinary!👏👏👏👏
There is a feeling of internalization within her of every note and text to make it possible to be drawn in emotionally with her. She has a radiant stage presence and such a beautiful dress.
Stunning. She always had such class and ALWAYS wore the most stylish dresses when she performed on stage. My only qualm is her somewhat lack of text clarity. For someone who was married to F-D rather a strange phenomena. Nevertheless every note is so exquisite to listen to - that surely more than makes up for any loss of text! Very fortunate to able to listen to this
Fabulous concert, thanks for sharing. I wish the camera operator would have panned around the orchestra a bit more, they didn't even show the horn solo.
I saw Julia Varady at the Metropolitan Opera in NY in 1978, I think, as Donna Elvira in DON GIOVANNI. From the heights of my standing place I recognized the voice. Yet, to my knowledge she never appeared in the US after that? Anyway, I love her singing in this performance. The filming is awful.
A little rushed tempo wise I think she could have drawn the phrases out more given the opportunity the voice was there let her work her magic even her lower notes were lovely. The third song sounded as though things might slow down but NO!
A szeptember túl gyors nem szép elvész a lényeg ! A karmester sem érzi igazából ezt aki ilyen tempót választ ez nem lóverseny ! A többi cikluson is pici sietséget érzek ! A zenekar egyébbként jó szép hangzású !
Oh. Out of tune notes in second movement, perfunctory horn solo (conductor's fault). Lots to admire, but not a collection item. A must view once, though.
Gran cantante,hermosa voz, excelente técnica
Possibly the greatest post-war soprano few people have heard of.
She is wonderful!

Für mich die ergreifendste Version der 4 Letzte Lieder von Richard Strauss! Grandios die bildhübsche Julia Varady!
The voice of liquid gold, so fluid and effortlessly beautiful high notes.
Fantastic performance. God Bless Strauss
Groß-Artig - große Kunst - wunderbar !! DANKE

Quelle classe, quelle élégance Madame Varady ! Et pour couronner le tout, un sublime orchestre aux sonorités envoutantes...
She is so brilliant. There are flaws and imperfections, but there’s something so compelling too and the timbre is luminous.
One of the best recordings available.

Magnificent voice of pure beauty! Heartfelt and moving interpretation. Thank you for sharing.

Very well said. Agreed!
Hay ablado muchas, muchas verdades!
Yes that violin solo was played exquisitely ! :))
The gorgeous voice pouring from this beautiful woman, truly music of the spheres, transporting us as Strauss always does. Thank you for posting.
Great Technician, Great Artist! Love her voice!

A sublime artist.
Wonderful.
Oh. Good. Grief!! Why have I not heard this before?! Many thanks for uploading.🙏🏻
Many thanks for watching! Glad you enjoy it! ;)
Eine goldene Stimme aus reinstem Silber: Excellent! Aber auch Masur mit dem Tempo; interessant!
Ja, völlig anders als in der Norman-Aufnahme, die für mich immer noch der Maßstab ist, zusammen mit Karajans Einspielung und Janowitz.
It is not fair she is so underrated. She wasn't only Fischer-Diskau's woman.
oh, boo hoo hoo! life is so unfair!
meanwhile, back in the real world ...
A truly great soprano inexplicably underrated.
Fantastica....Bravissima 🌹🌹🌹🍀🍀🍀
Mis mejores deseos para todos los que aman estas canciones inagotables.
Otra gran interpretación. Gracias por compartirla.
Pure beauty.
There is a feeling of internalization within her of every note and text to make it possible to be drawn in emotionally with her. She has a radiant stage presence and such a beautiful dress.
Stunning performance.
Realmente magnífica. Gran intérprete. Un artista completa, de esas que hoy no se ven en los escenarios líricos.
Stunning. She always had such class and ALWAYS wore the most stylish dresses when she performed on stage. My only qualm is her somewhat lack of text clarity. For someone who was married to F-D rather a strange phenomena. Nevertheless every note is so exquisite to listen to - that surely more than makes up for any loss of text!

Thought I had seen all the best performances of this before this one - I was wrong - this is the best (imo)
Julia Varady: the one I've been listing for.
Superb :)
Stunning!
Interesting that it seems much faster than the version with the same conductor and orchestra with Jessye Norman.
but different singer ! thats why.
Have you spoken with R Strauss through a medium?
The tempi are not metronome-set. It's just a blueprint. In fact some singers have done them so slow it's like a funeral dirge.
@@margogreene I didn’t say that either tempo is wrong, only that they are different.
@@smurf902 I didn’t say that one tempo is right. I just commented that they are different.
If only this had been captured in the studio when she was younger would have be a classic recording.
I have been waiting for this magnificent document to reappear! Thank you so much.
very wonderful
God and queen in joint force... what a night!
... ¡¡¡ GRACIAS INFINITAS !!! ...
¡Qué maravilla!
Bravissima!
Wonderful artist!
Wunderbar. Immer wieder wunderbar. Eine makellose Interpretation. Selbst vor dem Bildschirm ist man zu Tränen gerührt.
Such a shame that this was never released on CD! 🙃
❤
Fabulous concert, thanks for sharing. I wish the camera operator would have panned around the orchestra a bit more, they didn't even show the horn solo.
Jessye Norman
Может быть я не понимаю чего-то, но, скажите тогда, буду благодарен, спасибо!
I saw Julia Varady at the Metropolitan Opera in NY in 1978, I think, as Donna Elvira in DON GIOVANNI. From the heights of my standing place I recognized the voice. Yet, to my knowledge she never appeared in the US after that? Anyway, I love her singing in this performance. The filming is awful.
I saw her in Salome at Santa Fe Opera in the mid-90s.
Beautiful horn solo end of September. Pity they didn’t show the player.
It's funny how i enjoy a more forward sound like Varady's in this rather than the knödl of Fleming. It's much more human sounding
Ведь в этой песне герой предстаёт перед Богом..... А скрипач играет всего лишь красивую мелодию....
Luister ook eens naar Lisa della Casa/Gundela Janowitz... deze stem is heel mooi, maar te "scherp" (veel vibratie) voor deze 4 prachtige liederen
You don't think Janowitz had too much vibrato? She was beautiful but it was the most vibrato I've ever heard of any singer besides Bartoli.
A little rushed tempo wise I think she could have drawn the phrases out more given the opportunity the voice was there let her work her magic even her lower notes were lovely. The third song sounded as though things might slow down but NO!
Соло скрипки в 3-м номере вполне еврейское, это прекрасно, но, в этой музыке этого не должно быть... Браво!!!
Show us the horn.
Too fast
Я имел в виду, в этом конкретном исполнении, конкретный (великолепный) скрипач играет не в том характере (на мой взгляд....)
EXQUISITA
I wish her voice landed more pleasingly on my ear, but to me there is an unpleasant warble. I also think her interpretation lacks subtlety.
A szeptember túl gyors nem szép elvész a lényeg ! A karmester sem érzi igazából ezt aki ilyen tempót választ ez nem lóverseny !
A többi cikluson is pici sietséget érzek ! A zenekar egyébbként jó szép hangzású !
Die große Varady, hier nicht in bester Form und sehr - zu starke - Vokalverfärbungen: a wird zum o.
Oh. Out of tune notes in second movement, perfunctory horn solo (conductor's fault). Lots to admire, but not a collection item. A must view once, though.
