Wagner: Tristan und Isolde - Prelude

I was about to give up looking for one particular piece for precisely that reason. Beauty of youtube et al is the 'free speech/critique/contribute/enj oy and opine'. But blimey.
A little hearsay and pop culture/knowledge goes a long way in these places. I do wonder whether some actually actively search videos to simply post negative/controversy.
Beautiful music.

It is his job to gain the trust of the natives. You must love Movie Watcher . Us

Same to you Alberto. Happy New Year.

tristan chord <3

dissonance to lesser dissonance

the fact that he found that out... is just incredulous

wagner got a new sound and there is no peace at all.That's why he was different so.

Yeah.. but.. it is Wagner, a very controversial figure if not for what he is said to have believed but for who used his works after his death. I knew of music store owners in the UK who refused to stock his work for that reason.

Its so sad if that's true. I mean, honestly, how many of Wagner's great predecessors (Mozart/Beethoven) believed in slavery or had racist thoughts of being superior to people of dark skin? This (along with many other works of his) is some of the most beautiful works ever written. To omit Wagner is to take away one of the greatest byproducts of Beethoven's Romantic music and one of the greatest composers to draw breath.

Magnificent!

The movie Tristen and Islode should have include this music.
