Entonces nunca has escuchado la versión de La Walkiria de 1957 en Bayreuth , dirigida por el gran Hans Knappertsbusch gran versión , escúchala y no volverás a decir que Morris es la perfección , porque la verdad está muy lejos de eso......🤷🏼♀️. Después de escuchar a Hotter no volverás a escuchar a Morris sin desmerecer su esfuerzo...
@ClaudiaLopez-vt5jz I have listened to EVERY Ring version you can think of. From Knappertsbusch and Solti to Karajan, Thielleman, and Barenboim. I know the Ring like the palm of my hand. And I stand by what I said "This is the BEST Ring Cycle EVER".
If here you marvel at these interpretations of Die Walküre...how far you are from knowing the true masterpieces made in Bayreuth 1957, Birgit Nilsson, Ramón Vinay, Astrid Varnay, and the great Hans Hotter, true unforgettable Wagnerian singers with beautiful voices, noble stamps and that unfortunately no longer exist.
Jessye Norman is a spellbound Sieglinde! Hildegard Behrenz sounds like a lyrical soprano. James Morris is a bit strained here. What a sumptuous production! The conducting is great, poor Maestro Levine, here in the height of his glory...And such glorious music to a tale of cruelty and violence...
The other video posted by this account is Acts 1 and 2 of Die Walkure, and is called "Die Walkure II" just like this one. I'm guessing the "II" is meant to indicate that it is the second cycle. Was confusing to me as well, and I agree its misleading.
Why is this orchestra unable to bring a good Wagner sound? ?? Levine or the sometimes thin voices? The valkyries for example, Tomlinson gave a good farewell!
I am not a fan of Levine, and this is not in relation to the accusations. Leinsdorf, Solti, Furtwangler, Karajan and Knappertsbusch leave Levine miles behind in imagination, musical imagery and powerful emotional impact. I can feel when an orchestra starts to slack off and play lazy, and the met here is guilty of that by the truck loads. bums
Best Act III of Walküre ever. James Morris is for me the best Wotan, his voice is absolute perfection.

why the heck did it take the curtains so bloody long to close? That must've been murder for the woodwind section.
Hey Tom, You title this as Die Walkure Act I scene 3, but it is actually Act III, Scene 1
Un capolavoro...contemporaneo.Musica e voce,arte e cuore....un'opera senza eguali.
Misleading title clearly not act 2 ...

the accusations were true...and destroyed his lengthy 40+year career.
