Makes Copland look so pedestrian by comparison

no tenor, no bariton. Why?

notaire2 Vielleicht hat sich Dirigent und Orchester auch den Vorgaben der Sänger anpassen müssen!? Ansonsten sind Ihre Anmerkungen richtig. Hier in Europa wird Gerschwin häufig zu symphonisch gespielt, jedoch in den USA vornehmlich mehr im Big Bamd Style, was zutrffender ist.

Danke für Ihre angemessene Antwort! "Häufig zu symphonisch gespielt" ist das richtige Wort.

@@notaire2 Kann dem nur zustimmen. Wundervolle Sänger aus Capetown. Leider das Konzert in der Alten Oper verpasst, das letzte Mal vor ca. 3 Jahren mit amerikanischen Sängern gehört, allerdings als Aufführung. Diese haben natürlich die typisch afroamerikanische Dynamik reingebracht.

Danke für Ihre nette Zustimmung. Die Aussprache dieser Solisten ist eher klassisch als jazzig, aber die ganze Aufführung ist echt fantastisch.

Leoyatine price great opera singer sing Summer Time

Your mother was ahead of her time 😊❤️

Não há palavras que digam tudo o que nos vai no coração...

Hope we were convincing enough :)

Too bad, but that’s fine anyway.

Its JAZZ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ballads are all conducted *notably* slower than these are usually performed here in the United States.

Espetacular

Or just recruit from different communities. There's still plenty of jazz in Europe to make it happen.

They did import the cast, but unfortunately with the wrong ethnic background. And in reference to jazz in Europe, yes there's a lot of good jazz in Europe, and more particularly, in Germany and this orchestra has shown it can handle it. But the type of bluesy American jazz that stems from the oppressed Negroes in the early 20th century and influences some of Gershwin's works, is unique and even some American symphony orchestras can't get it right.

@@bryangl1 They sang for German audience. People liked it because they cannot differ the things you mentioned. We are very happy here to listen sometimes a life concert of this opera !

@@helbiglilian3 Oh yes, I fully understand that. If you can't have an ideal performance (and what's an ideal performance anyway) it's better to have at least a good performance, and this is a good performance, than none at all.

There are enough black singers singing in Germany to cast this opera. The only real problem is the chorus. The Cape Town oO/watch?v=3EXndPGTPm0

drop the hate. God is LOVE.

I'm not surprised. European and especially german orchestras simply have a completely different style of music making. It takes a very skilled conductor and loads of extra-rehearsals to get them to play Gershwin correctly. It just doesn't come natural to them.

At the soprano's solo in Overflow, my brain tried to tell me she was singing Italian. Almost couldn't stand to listen to more.

You cannot tell an artist what the correct feeling is, each artist has his own interpretation of an author and he plays it according to his personality and his way of seeing life, art is more than a lot of instructions. I have listened to Gerswhin since I was a child and for me he is one of the most versatile and creative artists of all time, I also believe that not only the way you liked him is the ideal way.

@@diegoandresdelgadoc I think you are saying that each performer will bring his or her interpretation to a composition, and that is true. But in classical music (and even though in this work Gershwin was strongly influenced by the Blues that originated in the American south, the music is still essentially "classical" in construction - although not 'classical' in the sense of music period) and the performer should be aiming to interpret the music essentially as the composer intended. This is totally different to a jazz band (any type of jazz) taking a song and turning it into something of their own creation. In the setting of the story, Gershwin was explicitly using the influence of the American Negro's blues, which originated among the repressed coloured peoples of the south, to emphasize the moods of the story; so it's not a case of the "way I liked him", it's a case of Gershwin's intentions. Apart from that I totally agree with your opinion of Gershwin's greatness. It was a sad loss to the world of music that he died just when he was approaching full maturity in his music. We are fortunate to have the legacy of the large number of great songs he composed, along with the Piano Concerto and two Rhapsodies to emphasize his versatility and genius.

@@bryangl1 I totally agree when you talk about what the author intended, perhaps his hearing is better educated, however for me it was a wonderful interpretation with an interesting symphonic air
