He also did the greatest Captain in Wozzeck I ever saw. Highly recommend watching him in the first scene of Act I, he completely steals the show.

The white-haired "extra" who makes Sachs and Beckmesser shake hands in the closing moments is Wolfgang Wagner, the composer's grandson, and producer of this opera.

There are so many things that make this the best Meistersinger I've ever heard and see, but the final handshake reconciliation is the final touch of human greatness. I'll always want to see that ending, and will see it whether it is present or not.

That's not how Wagner the antisemitic bigot wanted it. The whole production is a joke.

I saw this production in 1986. Hermann Prey STOLE the show.

I saw this quite young on purchased VHS tapes. Siegfried Jerusalem is, to me, the premiere Wagner Singer- I have never seen/heard him give a bad performance. But Richard Wagner truly created something unique when writing and composing the role of Hans Sachs. Bernard Weikl is utter perfection in this role- both voice and acting. When I did marry,Way back- I ended up with a man much older than myself. And to this day, I wonder how much Hans Sachs created by Wagner and Bernard Weikl influenced my decision.

As far as I'm concerned, this is THE production of "Meistersinger". Absolutely splendid!

@@KENBECKERART Wait until you see that at the end of Tristan und Isolde, a bit before the final leitmotif, there's a leitmotif that can also be heard in Wotan's farewell in Die Walküre, and with the same notes, just one octave higher :) It's funny because I've never seen that discussed anywhere. Anyways on that subject I've had this strange theory about a "Wagner multiverse", that in all likelyhood means absolutely nothing because multiverses weren't teally a thing back then. So using very dubious deduction methods, we can first guess that Tristan und Isolde and Die Meistersinger are related because of that leitmotif. But Tristan und Isolde is also related to the Ring because of that other leitmotif I mentioned. Since Wotan and Fricka are mentioned in Lohengrin, they are also related. And of course Lohengrin is related to Parsifal. And guess what? Parsifal and Lohengrin are characters from Wolfram von Eschenbach, who appears in Tannhäuser, so once again a relation. So all of these operas are (probably not though) related in some way! Anyways don't take this seriously because this isn't very serious. You could also make a case for some other passages resembling a leitmotif from another opera but that's quite farfetched honestly. Anyways thanks for your reply, that comment was originally just intended for me to remember where that part was

@@Bee-Vai Okay, so now I’m even more ready to go down the rabbit hole… I had the good fortune to study Medieval English literature and Arthurian Literature in school (wayyyy back…) and I was captivated by Eschenbach (and a host of other sources I’d not yet discovered like Chrétien du Trois, Gawain and the Green Knight and the real Beowulf…) I also don’t think Wagner was creating a “multiverse” so much as he was drawing from a very deep well of the “monomyth” where there is so much crossover between the archetypes of the human psyche. Since I know he was writing several operas simultaneously he certainly would have seen the recurring archetypal themes playing out; hence Hans Sachs and Eva’s “kind of” relationship (which hardly approached tragedy) had some notes similar to Tristan and Isolde’s otherwise very different and very tragic, fully “blown out” relationship. Unfulfilled love and longing are universal themes to different degrees with everyone, so of course he’d draw from that same root. Like a painter who favors certain palettes or techniques because that is how they apprehend a mood or story. Whew, all this “music appreciation” of course has just got me more fired up about this Wagnerian “rabbit hole” (and now I’m going to revisit Eschenbach too!)

Saludos Danny Salguero. Creo firmemente que el arte es para ennoblecer y ensalzar el espíritu. Toda interpretación o expresión "artística" que pretenda deformar o desviarnos hacia otros senderos confusos, como sucede hoy en día, solo busca alejarnos de verdades y destinos grandiosos para el ser humano. El arte Wagneriano esta empapado de influencias y cánones estéticos, que van desde la leyenda, pasando por lo griego y clásico. Wagner nos legó una gran obra como aporte en la eterna búsqueda existencial. El pasado, presente y futuro se fusionan en el Anillo, por ejemplo, para ofrecernos toda una enciclopedia humana. Te sugiero la lectura de sus escritos: "Arte y revolución", "La obra de arte del futuro", "Opera y drama", "El judaismo en la música" que te darán mas luz para poder transitar en el sendero Wagneriano rumbo al Walhala de la plenitud artística. Obviamente todo esto de la mano de la audición de sus dramas musicales. Un abrazo.

Der heilige Hieronymus im Gehäuse (Antonello da Messina) 3:00

I have no idea how anyone can learn the part of Sachs. I think it was Wolfgang Wagner who led Beckmesser to shake hands with Sachs.

A rendező a befejező felvonásban különösen hatásos megoldásokat választott. Dicsérjük meg végre a szerzőt, akiről a Thomas Mann azt írta:"Szenvedő és óriási, mint a század, amelyet a maga teljességében kifejez, a tizenkilencedik: így áll előttem Richard Wagner alakja."

So toll Weikl in dieser Rolle auch war, hier ist er einfach zu jung. Bei den Meistersingern lässt sich ja das historisch korrekte Alter von Hans Sachs ziemlich genau bestimmen wenn man Wagners Hinweis nimmt das er Witwer ist. Weikl ist hier 42. Wenn man ein bisschen historisch nachforscht, dann spielt die Oper am wahrscheinlichsten im Jahr 1561. Da war Hans Sachs bereits 67. Da macht Sachs Aussage "Mein Kind der wär zu alt für dich" auch durchaus Sinn. Das war Weikl hier aber definitiv nicht.

The orchestra sound is weak.
