Berg Wozzeck Act III, sc. 2

[300musicmaster]

where can i find the whole film of this? this is a crazy production (technically)

[paulybarr]

I love this work, and this scene should be terrifying- but the acting is very poor. Marie, in particular is sleepwalking- she's not 'in the moment', reacting spontaneously to what she hears Wozzeck saying. An example is her " why are you shivering?". How would she KNOW he is shivering?- she says the line BEFORE she even sees him or feels his touch. She's so vacant. You can't act in slow- motion! even in opera!

The whole opera is so beautifully atonal!

Watched this is Music History this morning. From that haunting, gut wrenching B natural, to the eerie libretto and sinister atonality, this opera is truly a tour de force. Bravo!

Dale Duesing! What a great man.

Opera could be the highest form of art if there is such a thing:

You have story telling, music, poetry, acting, dancing and all in real time.

Wagner would have agreed....but I don't :P

"Bist jetzt heiss, Marie..., wirst auch wieder kalt werden..."

[p0lyph0ny]

"When it's cold, we shiver no more."

Wonderful...I love Berg's libretti.

[WaffenKartoffel]

This opera is hot.
