René Pape sings Wagner Arias -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Wagner: Der Augen leuchtendes Paar (from Die Walküre) Leb wohl...Loge, hör! 'Wotan's Farewell & Magic Fire Music' (from Die Walküre) Was duftet doch der Flieder (from Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg) Hört, ihr Leut, und lasst euch sagen (from Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg) Verachtet mir die Meister nicht (from Die Meistersinger von Nürnberg) Gott grüß' euch, liebe Männer von Brabant! (from Lohengrin) Oh Gnade! Höchstes Heil! – Oh Herr! War es ein Fluch (from Parsifal) Und ich, ich bin's – Nicht doch! Die heil'ge Quelle selbst (from Parsifal) Gesegnet sei, du Reiner, durch das Reine! (from Parsifal) Placido Domingo (tenor)
Wie dünkt mich doch die Aue (from Parsifal) Placido Domingo (tenor)
Wie Todesahnung (from Tannhäuser) Staatskapelle Berlin, Daniel Barenboim
Dresden-born bass René Pape was recently honoured as a “Met Mastersinger”, a distinction shared only by Renée Fleming. Pape’s perfect diction, bel canto beauty of tone, and psychological penetration make him one of our day’s most capable − and celebrated – Wagnerians.
Assembled for this all-Wagner project, a matter of the heart to René Pape, is a prestigious team. Daniel Barenboim, renowned for the sensuality of his Wagner, conducts the Staatskapelle Berlin, the maestro’s long-time collaborators.
Excerpts from such Pape signature roles as Gurnemanz and the Rheingold Wotan are complemented by a terrific teaser of a part Pape has yet to reveal on stage − his eagerly anticipated Hans Sachs, the noble cobbler of Die Meistersinger.
In addition to scenes from Lohengrin, Tannhäuser, and Die Walküre, a special treat features tenor Plácido Domingo with Pape in a scene from Parsifal
