"The First Minute of this little-known work in homage to the Enchanting King Ludwig is a Perfection, a Great Alchemical Work, we can feel the Bavarian Mountains and Lakes, the Grail and the infinite vastness of a Lost Paradise, a vanished Land of Fairys, a great nostalgia emanates from this piece which evokes the dreams of a King who wanted to touch the Heavens".

"Die erste Minute dieses wenig bekannten Werkes zu Ehren des zauberhaften Königs Ludwig ist eine Perfektion, ein großes alchemistisches Werk, man spürt die bayerischen Berge und Seen, den Gral und die unendlichen Weiten eines verlorenen Paradieses, ein verschwundenes Land der Gebühren, eine große Nostalgie geht von diesem Stück aus, das die Träume eines Königs heraufbeschwört, der den Himmel berühren wollte.

"La Première Minute de cette Œuvre méconnue en hommage au Roi Enchanteur Ludwig est une Perfection,un Grand Œuvre Alchimique, l'on peut y ressentir les Montagnes et les Lacs de Bavière,le Graal et l'immensité infini d'un Paradis Perdu ,une Terre des Fees qui s'est évanouie ,une grande nostalgie émane de ce morceau qui évoque les rêves d'un Roi qui a voulu toucher les Cieux." Mike Aldebaran
Quand je pense qu'il était contre cette stupide Guerre de 1870 et qu'il fut envahit de chagrin que la France, pays qu'il admirait tant, perdre. C'est un un roi qu'on devrait rendre hommage, tant qu'en France qu'en Allemagne.
Sounds so romantic! Intense and deep! The king is a spitting image of a kid I knew once only he was blonde and French!... Miss you Orly! Love, Mom❤️🌹😁🇩🇪🎭🎼🎶👍❗🤔
Such a misunderstood King in his time and to be declared insane as a means for him to be dethroned was so sad. His lasting legacy are the gorgeous castles of Hohenschwangau and Neuschwanstein
The thing is.... was King Ludwig insane, ... or was the world around him insane? What is insanity to one, may be self-explanatory logic to another.....
@@clavichord Well, he demonstrated how a magical thinker makes for a very poor monarch. In other words, he is proof that monarchies were outdated and did not serve the needs of the people. He lived in his own fairytale world. His noble birth left him completely out of touch with the daily lives of the people. He never really wanted to address the problems facing the people. He had a brilliant mind but was a catastrophically bad leader.
Not quite, Hohenschwangau was renovated by his Father, Maximilian, the Castle itself is over 800 years old, but he did build and design Neuschwanstein.
I will add that as a high-schooler 16 I checked out a biography of Richard Wagner and was amazed by his history and personality and that of the times really; and particularly his friendship with the eccentric Bavarian King Ludwig. Under a particular castle, they had an underwater world where they would float from one manmade island to another on artistically rendered Viking dragon boats. You may think this is wasteful; but having different experiences and knowledge from you, I am under a reasonable impression that in Earthly, Cosmic, and Divine terms there is no scarcity of resources for the noble and merited.
Like the first light of dawn, this music opens the eyes to new promises and all the wonders of nature. Evocative of belief in "the afterlife" and powers beyond observation, these pieces pull the strings of the heart, draw nostalgia and awaken loves, skinned lives and sleepy watchmen !
Wondrous! Wondrous! So wondrous I, a long-time admirer of the German Dragon Lizard Composer Wagner, and a friend of all fellow Dragon story composers and creators and participants, am actively seeking a libretto for one of our cloud art heavens, inspired by this wondrous, Olympus-stirring March of Homage to the great friend and patron King Ludwig was to Wagner; Indeed, beneath the Royal Palace in Vienna or thereabouts on the Estate, there was a subterranean water world where Wagner, Ludwig, and a select but arguably 'mad' group of friends would canoe on Viking-styled Dragon Boats from one art island to another, conversations, conducting affairs, more than occasionally smoking opium, and coming up with these wondrous legendary musical theatric librettos played in polish on the stage(now the silver screen) but participated in by the countless millions of pop-art participants, affiliates, side-hustle hypesters; I would quote the Talking Heads, 'Same as it's ever been;' But don't take me too literally as some, even I, at times misinterpet King Solomon in Ecclessiastes when he proclaims, 'There is nothing new under the Sun.' It is a kind of parable; a dragon parable.
Only fair really when you know that Ludwig´s first order after becoming King at 18 was to get his Agents to find him, Wagner was on the run from his Debtors and for trying to instigate a Revolution in Eastern Germany. They found him in Switzerland. Ludwig paid off his debts and provided a flat in Munich for him to carry on his work, basically, no Ludwig no more Wagner music, he was a very slow writer and his operas went on for almost forever. Hitler became a big fan years later. Ironic as Ludwig hated War!
He was called mad b/c of his vast expenditure on things of beauty, in music and architecture, and so was removed as he was depleting the familial coffers of gold.
The Secret Sharer August was the uncruel month that year. I remember morning sun glimmering through heat-mists over the Starnberger See and castle gates opening at first light to welcome musicians for early rehearsal. Later, on the green, leader and follower assembled: allies in paired counterpoint.

Beautiful composition. I must admit it is the slowest version I have ever heard. Interesting arrangement though I love it! Thanks for your wonderful uploads K2. Is this available on cd? Greetings Canada.
Intonation in this performance is not the best but still...thanks for posting. The slow opening is gorgeous. This one is a cut above the Kaiser and Centennial marches.
We will never be enough thankful to Ludwig II of Bavaria and all what he did for Wagner and his art.
King Ludwig II of Bavaria is Ace of Clubs ♣REST IN POWER Blessings and HUGS! 👑💜

OK...
Wonderful music for a wonderful monarch, a true patron of arts and culture!

Its sad when you get to know someone who may understand you, but he's dead.

I am still so close to Ludwig. ❤️😀🏰👑🍺🥨🌭Yea Bavaria. My King.
Tout est dans ces petites représentations de Bavière très jolies!
Ein Schoengeist und idealist! Er lebte in seiner eigener Welt. Er erkannte das Genie von Richard Wagner und Bayreuth haben wir ihm auch zu verdanken.
They were good bro. Very damn good. Awesome.
I love this dude and this divine music that surrounds him!🎼🎶🎵🇩🇪❤️👍❗
bez Wagnera, muzika ne bi imala tu njegovu "Maestoznost", niko mu ne može ni blizu prići!
Ruhe in Frieden Ludwig.
Unser aller Kini der Bayern !

@@Chironex_Fleckeri I do not believe he was an absolute monarch in Bavaria. The politicians did the leading... but Ludwig did the spending
The castles and.. the later music of Richard Wagner.
Not quite, Hohenschwangau was renovated by his Father, Maximilian, the Castle itself is over 800 years old, but he did build and design Neuschwanstein.
So to a friend?
Bravo. Here’s to my friends and to you and yours.
Bless you out there reading these words.
Stay safe out there!
He was incredibly handsome!
I have never heard this Wagner composition before. It's an instant winner with me. Thank-you for uploading it.
Great music. No wonder, Ludwig loved it so much.
Beautiful piece of music, I adore it, and Ludwig II too.

I saw Neuschwanstein and Hohenschwangau 4 years ago. I was impressed by his castles.His love for a fairytale world.
My sweet King.

el tema fugado es magnífico y la introducción es de un aire de Lohengrin
Very great of you to make an appearance here ..mr. Richard Wagner ..thank you

Very nice!
The Secret Sharer
August was the uncruel month that year.
I remember morning sun glimmering through heat-mists over the Starnberger See
and castle gates opening at first light
to welcome musicians for early rehearsal.
Later, on the green,
leader and follower assembled:
allies in paired counterpoint.
A multitude of subjects crowded in on each other.
“This music crept by me upon the waters”
In the field the trumpets trilled,
chasing the dreams of prismatic sonorities,
while a circle of swans clustered in the lake.
He said, “Cosima, Cosima... ”
inaudible
I see crowds of people, walking round in a ring.
By and by
(the midday sun pursuing ennervated shadows)
Hofbrau beer quenched the thirst of their enthusiasm.
Then king and subject were alone:
“We were born one for another.”
inaudible
“Yes, majesty, my co-creator.”
Years passed. August followed August.
The end surprised us coming under the Starnberger See.
Fear death by water.
Thanks 👍 😊

Bu harika!
Prachtige muziek wat ik nog nooit hoorde. Ludwig zou het zeker mooi hebben gevonden.
MAGNIFICO
E' il Wagner Superlativo che tutti conosciamo e che ha fatto Grande Storia,anche in questa composizione praticamente sconosciuta!!
This moves souls
Síntese do mundo de sonhos em que viviam os dois, o músico e o soberano.
so slow compared to other recordings that I even thought it was some other piece; but in the end I prefer this interpretation much more. beautiful!
Yes but it's no longer a march. It's totally lifeless in my opinion and not as the composer intended.
Should the quality or otherwise of music determine its power and appeal? If so then this much listened to piece will endure for eternity.
...I was wondering where I remember hearing this ...Another little ditty Leni Riefenstahl used in her movie
Justice for Ludwig, open the crypt finally!
I seriously doubt that will ever happen, alas.
♥️
Beautiful composition. I must admit it is the slowest version I have ever heard. Interesting arrangement though I love it! Thanks for your wonderful uploads K2. Is this available on cd? Greetings Canada.
Sorrow for the great King
Triste fin.
Intonation in this performance is not the best but still...thanks for posting. The slow opening is gorgeous. This one is a cut above the Kaiser and Centennial marches.
x1.75 ... there you go
Mon cousin peut-être. Il devait épouser la fille de l'empereur cest çà ?
They say Lugwig was missing front teeth. Can anyone confirm this ?
Mr. Termaaten I can assure you it is a lie!
Music - interesting; performance - awful.
好吧，没话可说
Очень медленно.Противно.
6-7 минут она звучит
Dreadful tempo, should be played at twice the speed
Absolutely: to call this a "march" is a violation of the trade descriptions act!
Puuh, this version is really quite bad...sounds like an old hurdy-gurdy :P
