  • This truly is amazing. Did you know that two men died of heart attack while conducting this act. It is said that they knelt down at the exact same spot. How Powerful ? ..

  • The theme gives me the impression to hear someone breathing. Then I feel like my heart skips a beat.

  • Wagner wrote some antisemitic stuff, like most other western intellectuals of his time. He basically also revolutionized theater performance and writing, music and thinking about art. Now get over it, and enjoy some of the deepest music ever offered to human ears.

  • superb...

    

  • Why do you always relate Wagner to nazism? Why are you so simple? Why don't you link it to mythology  or film directors? Why is that everything in the world is "antisemitic" or "sionist? Why don't you leave us alone or find a good therapist? People like you killed scientists in the name of religion or forbid music and books in the name of the state. Makes me cry..

    WAGNER ÜBER ALLES !

  • Boring. Its not like Mozart is it?

  • wonderfull

  • @VileIntentionsUS Yes but in a wagner opera there is an antisemitic part (I don't remember in which one, sorry). It's like the french writer Louis-Ferdinand Céline, he was far from being the only antisemit writer in france, but it didn't appear in the other famous writer's books and it appeared clearly in some if his books. I guess that's the reason....

  • @lukawski100 So were Bach, Martin Luther, Henry Ford, and Walt Disney. Hitler admittedly admired and respected the varied talents of all of them... yet all I ever hear mentioned in this context is Richard Wagner. That's my point.
