I listen to this perfectly conducted and played Rienzi's Ouverture through the years again and again. And I always get goose pimples from it. And I love how sensitive and gentle Klaus Tennstedt conduct it!! Thank you!! And thank to the entire LPO for translating Tennstedt's guiding moves into a celestial sound which makes you feel how subtle and romantic could be Wagner .
Oh yes, me too! This work and this performance of it lifts my spirits in a way few other pieces do.., Wonderful Tennstedt and wonderful playing by the orchestra. I do so love Wagner, Thanks so much, You Tube for posting this.
Simply the best rendition I have ever heard, the arrangement, the timing, the subtly in volume, the horn section, like the gods themselves performed. A rare treat for the senses.
It's definitely a smoother, restrained performance, and very enjoyable. What makes music fascinating is the interpretation. This would be almost the polar opposite of Solti, but I enjoy both styles, and reckon Dick Wagner would as well, as he had an open mind.
To hold such a magisterial tempo without the slightest hint of dragging is conducting of the highest order! As well as Wagner, Tennstedt's Mahler performances are among the best ever recorded - give them a try.
Tennstedts Mahler 1 with Chicago SO is the absolute best piece of all times. It is unbelievable, outstanding and wonderful. Although he was a Violinist, he really pulls the best out of the Brass. I will never know why he is the most underestimated conductor in Germany until today!
@@nickosullivan6264 You certainly got an adverse reaction (below) and indeed must have expected it, I imagine, seeing you didn't attempt to justify your preposterous proposition with any rational argument. Just trolling? Or do you have something to say?
What better person than Herr Tennstedt as a German to so understand Wagner's music snd bring out his wonderful understanding of this Great Masters music and also that he really by adding his complete understanding of Wagner's music . The LPO are musicians extraordinaire ! Wagner's music is Music and had nothing to do with his political outlook ! Recognize his music as GREAT Music. Also let us not forget the loss of Herr Tennstedt while he had come into his prime !!!!!
Absolutely wonderful and definitive interpretation of this overture of Rienzi. The conduct of Klaus Tennstedt is superb and the orchestra is extraordinary.
Tennstedt was one of a kind, a wonderful conductor who always brought out the best from the orchestra. Maestros of his caliber are very few and far between. I'm glad that many of his performances have been preserved for us to relish all these years after his passing.
This performance could be the one of the best live Wagner "Overture Rienzi I'm so proud Tokyo has such a magnificent classical concert hall !! I miss so much I've been lived in London since late 80's but there is no symphonic concert hall in London I'm afraid I wonder why & how come ...... !!!?
London had an acoustically brilliant concert venue in the Queen's Hall in Portland Place almost adjacent to the BBC's Broadcasting House. Unfortunately it was bombed to smithereens by the Luftwaffe in 1941. I refrain from further comment.
I have been a confirmed lover of Wagner's beautiful music for a long time. Has any one else of my age group (67) ever noticed at the end of Reinzi that there is a small segment of the music that sounds like Mighty Mouse's " Here I Come to Save the Day"
RIENZI es una de las oberturas más deslumbrantes de Richard Wagner. Desde la primera vez que la escuché me ha impresionado y nunca dejo de disfrutarla.
Tremendous memories of working with a legendary musician. Klaus died over 20 years ago and I still miss working with him. Great ping pong player, as well! The flow that he created was stirring.
I have enjoyed Tennstedt's radio concert recordings with The Minnesota Orchestra for many years. The comments I've read from you and many other musicians who played under his direction are always enthusiastic in their praise of this unique and marvelous conductor.
This Wagner performance in Tokyo was a great moment- under Tennstedts baton the LPO was one of the best orchestras in the world-and then Welser-Möst, Masur and Jurowski ruined it!!! So much thanks for posting this unique rendition!
Maestro Tennstedt nails it!!! Nuance, detail, and ambiance! It's all there! Even Richard Wagner (who hated his own opera for being too conventional and for appealing to a conventional public) would have LOVED IT!!! Bravo Maestro Klaus and bravo to LPO!
Bè,si capisce perchè l'opera fu un trionfo alla prima del 1842....L'ouverture basta da sola e rende già prova della maestria del giovanissimo Wagner. Bellissma questa esecuzione di Tennstedt e della LP
This is a wonderful performance with Tennstedt's tempi and rubato judged to perfection. New to me is the slowness of 'the turn' at the beginning of the main theme - half speed, but it sounds just right when you get used to it
I listen to this perfectly conducted and played Rienzi's Ouverture through the years again and again. And I always get goose pimples from it.

And thank to the entire LPO for translating Tennstedt's guiding moves into a celestial sound which makes you feel how subtle and romantic could be Wagner .
Me, too. I've heard a great many recordings of this overture over the years, but none that matches this one. It is simply the best.
I have forgotten how simply awesome this overture was. A masterpiece!
My orchestra is playing this right now...it is even more amazing being in the music!
🥰😘💪
Your just bad. too many negative influences maybe.
Richard Wagner + Klaus Tennstedt + London Philharmonic Orchestra = TOTAL BRILLIANCE! Thank you very much for posting this video
My favorite overture. Magnificently performed. No one writes for brass like Wagner.
Prokofiev maybe 🙂
ЧАЙКОВСКИЙ П.Ильич
How about a bravo to the musicians and their wonderful musicianship and passion for playing - a heartfelt thank you.
Absolutely; Bravo!
Klaus Tennstedt was one of the greatest conductors who ever lived!
A child of Four can do just as well!
Maestro Tennsted ; unvergleichlich, ohnegleichen, ungehört, unübertroffen !!
Words cannot describe how beautiful this piece is. THANK YOU WAGNER!
It is magnific
In search for better recordings I always find myself coming back to this one.
Me too.
Wagner's music has the power and beauty to reach my soul so deep. It s so strong that makes me cry
Oh yes, me too! This work and this performance of it lifts my spirits in a way few other pieces do.., Wonderful Tennstedt and wonderful playing by the orchestra. I do so love Wagner, Thanks so much, You Tube for posting this.
Yes brings me in tears too
Non Beautyful
Yes, I agree
Typical Wagner - all blast and militaristic trumpeting, no wonder Hitler loved him!
It doesn't get any better than this. This is the best.
The definitive version of this little masterpiece.
Keep coming back to this for my 'fix'.
Wagner would of been extremely proud of Tenstedt's interpretation of this wonderful piece....
You must be a poor moron
Simply the best rendition I have ever heard, the arrangement, the timing, the subtly in volume, the horn section, like the gods themselves performed. A rare treat for the senses.
True, better than v.Karajan.
Doesn't get any better. It's AMAZING.
It's definitely a smoother, restrained performance, and very enjoyable. What makes music fascinating is the interpretation. This would be almost the polar opposite of Solti, but I enjoy both styles, and reckon Dick Wagner would as well, as he had an open mind.
@ But not better than Lovro von Matacic!
So true. I heard things in this performance that I have never heard before. Tennstedt is magnificent.
To hold such a magisterial tempo without the slightest hint of dragging is conducting of the highest order! As well as Wagner, Tennstedt's Mahler performances are among the best ever recorded - give them a try.
Tennstedts Mahler 1 with Chicago SO is the absolute best piece of all times. It is unbelievable, outstanding and wonderful. Although he was a Violinist, he really pulls the best out of the Brass. I will never know why he is the most underestimated conductor in Germany until today!
@@janpeters3893 I agree - his performance of the 8th (with the London Philharmonic) in the same DVD set is also utterly majestic.
NEVER have I heard a finer performance of Wagner than Tennstedt and the LPO!!!
good for you
Tennstedt would have flunked every conducting class in the world today. Which is why he was a truly great conductor.
WAGNER, grandioso, magnífica interpretación.
At 1.40, you begin to realize the incredible genius and potential of this young composer.
Incredible performance! Great conductor and great orchestra! Thanks a lot!
Fantastic. Tennstedt was a master of tempo. It can't get any better than this.
Fabulous! Tennstedt almost convinced me that this absolute drivel is a good piece - which it isn't.
@@nickosullivan6264 Shut the fuck up, you absolute mongoloid of a human being.
@@nickosullivan6264 Russian music fan, no wonder why you talked shit about Wagner's :)
@@nickosullivan6264 You certainly got an adverse reaction (below) and indeed must have expected it, I imagine, seeing you didn't attempt to justify your preposterous proposition with any rational argument. Just trolling? Or do you have something to say?
I agree. And the pace is just right too! Just saying. :0)
Wow! Great Wagner from one of the most magnificent maestros of the 20th century.
Thank god for the young Wagner - and for the old Tennstedt!
And for the band.
@@peterfeltham5612 its not a band :v
Its an orchestra!! a much grander ensemble of musicians
ABSOLUTELY DANKE SCHOEN
Such lovely music. I gotta turn this on and force my lovely girl to dance with me.
The Sublime March! Tennstedt's Finest Video.

Rienzi. The conduct of Klaus Tennstedt is superb and the orchestra is extraordinary.
His absolute control of tempo is actually unreal. I've heard so many conductors rush this piece, especially in the first half
this is just so right!! exciting, dynamic, beautiful! Tennstedt was wonderful!
Tenntedt / Wagner !! superb.

Michael,they have had over 70yrs to build a new one.Germany has built an entire country from scratch in less time.

Very powerful moving music makes me cry love it too bits
Impresionante.....sin palabras, se me saltan las lagrimas
Reverencias al Maestro y mil gracias por compartir esta obra maestra
I thank everyone who brought Tennstedt to You Tube.
1:40 my soul is always moved by this beautiful melody.
Best!!! Conductor and orchestra are amazing!!
Wagner es majestuoso, solemne, grandioso, sublime
All I can say is WOOWWWW!! He's nailed it with the big horns!!
La direction de Klaus Tennstedt est toujours merveilleuse quand il dirige un orchestre jouant Wagner. Il manque à la musique.
Student Conductors should listen to this performance to see how this music should be played.
His tempo is out of this world
Shivers down the spine and up again,majestic ,Conductor, Orchestra ,recording all first class thank you to those responsible
HE KNEW HOW TO MAKE AN ORCHESTRA SING ! EXTREMELY ENJOYABLE PERFORMANCE BY A REAL MASTER : THANK YOU GINO
Ein Meisterwerk.

The master with a masterpiece .
Je ne m'en lasse pas : excellent merci !
Esecuzione a dir poco magistrale. Tra le migliori in assoluto, parlando della Overture del Rienzi. Grazie.
ci sei pisana
Wonderful playing and the brass is sensational.
Klaus Tennstedt in Bestform !! 1 : 38 für immer und ewig Richard !!
Tremendous memories of working with a legendary musician. Klaus died over 20 years ago and I still miss working with him. Great ping pong player, as well! The flow that he created was stirring.

Bravo! Excellent performance!
one of the best versions ive heard awsome on headphones,thanks for this.wow
Fantastic music thank you for sharing it with us
テンシュテットの音楽にはクレンペラーやベームと共通する揺るぎのない土台から発するエネルギーを感じる、抱きしめたくなる感動がそこにあるのだ。
Tennstedt è straordinario. Eccelsa direzione.
Wagner & Tennstedt equals perfection.
This Wagner performance in Tokyo was a great moment- under Tennstedts baton the LPO was one of the best orchestras in the world-and then Welser-Möst, Masur and Jurowski ruined it!!! So much thanks for posting this unique rendition!
You are so right !
Klaus Tennstedt simply the best wagnerian
I love how Tennstedt just lives the life at 11:23
Me, too.
Most refreshingly accurate and beautiful!
Maestro Tennstedt nails it!!! Nuance, detail, and ambiance! It's all there! Even Richard Wagner (who hated his own opera for being too conventional and for appealing to a conventional public) would have LOVED IT!!! Bravo Maestro Klaus and bravo to LPO!
My first introduction to Wagner was this. I had to hear more...and more.
Great performance ever!
Pensive and noble... Sometimes lighthearted. Wow!
Truly Fantastic a pleasure to listen this is brilliant music.
Klaus Tennstedt is the best
Expectacular me encanta esta versión.
Alles Gute, Klaus Tennstedt!
cette ouverture je ne l'écoutais jamais ,maintenant je l'écoute très souvent !.. c'est clair ,je vieillis..
INIGUALABLE, GENIAL !!!
absolutely magnificent !!
listen to this in Bavaria or Austria or Switzerland in the Alps and get the real effect and the inspiration of this most beautiful piece...outstanding
Bè,si capisce perchè l'opera fu un trionfo alla prima del 1842....L'ouverture basta da sola e rende già prova della maestria del giovanissimo Wagner.
Bellissma questa esecuzione di Tennstedt e della LP
Amazing!!!
Tennstedt Grandios. Bravo!!
TENNSTEDT IS BEST NOT ONLY IN MAHLER BUT ALSO IN WAGNER... SUPERB PERFORMANCE !!
I love the main theme. I goes so deep yet is so uplifting... These are the strongest feats of Wagner to me.
THE BEST!!!!
Un oasis para el alma y los oídos, antídoto contra la mediocridad, Gracias Wagner y a la Orquesta!
Solo un alemán puede interpretar tan magistralmente a Wagner...
Absolutely Remarkable...
hermosos .. bravo
fantastic brass section!
I agree. Laurie Evans on principal trumpet outstanding as usual.
WAGNER . MARAVILLOSO LO TRANSPORTA A TRAVES DE LA MUSICA GENIAL Y SOLEMNE.-
Göttlich!!!
素敵な楽曲ですね。CD検索しますね。
me gusta esta versión . en mi equipo suena total.
Disco King! - great performance great conducting.
sheer brilliance.
Tennstedt is a fiery spirit. I love it.
🌸Amazing！🌸🌱🌸☘🌸🍀🌸
Yay, you can kind of hear the triangle part in this version!!! :D
This is a wonderful performance with Tennstedt's tempi and rubato judged to perfection. New to me is the slowness of 'the turn' at the beginning of the main theme - half speed, but it sounds just right when you get used to it
Utterly sensational. He was ill then, but he could still conduct. A true musician!
Браво гениальная увертюра
7:42 How my Geography teacher choose students for group projects
Maravillosa!!!!
