    For me it is impossible to stop listening to Wagner every day.
  • I have known these fabulous overtures since I was 22. My Brother loved The Meister Singer Von Nurnberg Overture. He got that from me. My Oldest Sister revered them all. She particularly loved this one. Both Brother and Sister have been gone for several years now, and I still remember my Sis saying perhaps this is what you hear in Heaven I hope this is being experienced by her eternally now .
  • Wagners Ouvertüren sind mit das Beste was die klassische Musik zu bieten hat !!! Grandiose Darbietung !

    Was für ein zeitloses Meisterwerk
  • 55 years later I still recall how I felt when I first heard this on an LP. I was transported to another realm and could not believe what I was hearing. And the effect today remains the same.
  • Possibly one of the most beautiful pieces I’ve ever heard. I’m speechless.

    This piece has made me cry tears of joy at its sheer beauty in my darkest times. It is pure magic, it feels like it comes from a different world. For me this music is the holy grail. Herab von einer Engelschar gebracht.

    Berliner Philarmoniker plays Wagner as his music had been written for it. Congratulations to all of them and that outstanding british conductor. Greetings to Ms. Willis at the horn.
  • @mumeikun
    I believe this piece has most beautiful harmony of all classical music.
  • @gutri4953
    What beauty, what softness of texture, winds and violins that seem to come from an otherworldly dimension. Wagner is divine here, but Rattle also put his own in it, giving us an enchanting prelude.
