This is perfection!! (Solti + CSO, the whole orchestra, is perfection. To add to them Tannhauser well.., Well what can I say??!!! ♥♥♥ It's way beyond words) I most definitely agree with the remark regarding the Brass Section, and always have! I love this so much!! Thank you for posting.

@GuidaMargaridaCosta and @manny75586 thanks for your comments :)

I always say to my friends that this version of Wilhelm Richard Wagner's overture to Tannhauser must be in God's iPod.

experience makes knowledge, and those musicians performing a PERFECT Tannhauser Overture are the best example

@chpnlzt These old farts happen to be the best in the world. Yes, they might not be their younger, probably more technically virtuosic selves, but their experience is what makes them great. No one wants to hear a concert done by a bunch of young kids who play everything perfectly but without emotion. With age comes wisdom and knowledge about the music.

Only Solti did Wagner's music justice. In a word, brilliant.

Never mind. I did my own research. Love the music, Enjoyed the opera.

[Inquisitor53]

Okay, consider me ignorant (but not dum). Someone please clue me in on the name of the opera it came from if "Tannhauser" is not it. What is the opera about? Please give me a brief synopsis. Thanks!

Best brass section then now and ever. The trombone motif shortly after 2:30 is EXACTLY how it should be played. Far too many orchestras play it timid and soft so the violins are still dominant which is just nuts. A master orchestrator like Wagner wouldn't have called for 6 tombones in unison if he didn't want them to blast off like they do here. Brilliant piece, equally brilliant performance.

@TommyHaegin oh, it was not first performed in Paris (that was the second version)--the first was in Dresden and was only a so-so hit.

[windstorm1000]

@TommyHaegin Sort of--but first it was one of the biggest fiascos in music history by anti-German socialites. The audience, for the most part, loved it--when they could hear it--drowned out by whistles. Wagner withdrew the score after 2 more performances

Sublissimo! The glorious sound of the Chicago symphony with Maestro Solti. This is undoiubtedly the best brass section ever to play tannhauser.

The best. No contest.
