Synopsis of Act I:
Scene 1. (The Captain's room.) The soldier Wozzeck is shaving the Captain. The officer urges him to work more slowly, then tells him that he is a good man but lacks morality because he has an illegitimate child. Wozzeck replies that virtue is a luxury not meant for the poor.
Scene 2. (An open field.) Wozzeck and a fellow soldier, Andres, are cutting firewood in the fields. Wozzeck is frightened by visions: he hears noises and imagines the sinking sun as a fire setting the earth aflame. Then suddenly all is quiet.
Scene 3. (Marie's room.) Marie, the mother of Wozzeck's child, and her neighbor Margret watch a military band pass by outside their window. Marie admires the handsome Drum Major and Margret mocks her. Alone with her young son, Marie sings him a lullaby. Wozzeck arrives and tells her about his visions, which he sees as an omen of evil things to come. Marie tries to comfort him, but he rushes off to the barracks without looking at his son. Overwhelmed by her own fears, Marie runs out of the room, leaving the child.
Scene 4. (The Doctor's study.) Wozzeck visits the Doctor, who pays him for use in his medical research. Full of self-delusion about making a grand scientific discovery, the Doctor asks Wozzeck about his diet. Wozzeck again brings up his visions, which the doctor dismisses as mere imagination.
Scene 5. (Street before Marie's door.) On the street before her door, the Drum Major makes advances toward Marie. She resists at first, then gives in to him.
The opera Wozzeck is one of the best representations of the condition of human misery. Great performance of this masterpiece.
When he said "MoOoUuuUsSeee" at 4:17 I felt that...
Also, 6:14 is a mood
It hits so hard bro...

restore your faith in humanity, listen to berg
un opéra sublime , sombre , mystérieux , comme l est l oeuvre de georg buchner , l opéra me rappelle le théâtre de beckett , une atmosphère tragique ou se mêle , passion , solitude , espoir déçu , en plein expressionnisme allemand , alban berg nous livre une pièce envoûtante avec l immense abbado a la baguette ,,
The dialogue between the captain and Wozzeck is onte of the greatest Intros to a visual media in history
Wozzeck has to know how to shave the Hauptmann while he is singing and not cut him. Eine guter mensch
What a treasure, I never knew abbado had done wozzeck

wait, is the orchestra tuning and warming up or is that the overture ?
LOL Good one!
but what is it?
Background music added in post-production, I don't think it's the orchestra.
jaik willis I was thinking the same thing!!
jaik willis The tuning sounded more melodic than the overture. Lol.
I just watched the new production of this by the Met and it was pretty terrible, pointlessly 'modern' looking like Silent Hill, and ultimately upstaged the music and the story. This one is excellent.
Silent Hill LOL
Puccini ebbe modo di ascoltare a Palazzo Pitti una composizione di Schoenberg "Il Pierrot Lunaire"non credo lo abbia mai commentato.Probabilmente come tanti fu attratto dalla curiosità solamente.Questa musica si ascolta solo per questo.Una volta e poi non si ascolta più.
._
No, non è così. Puccini stesso lancia dei chiari messaggi di modernità nella Turandot che andrebbe ascoltata in chiave non tradizionale. Puccini assorbe tutti i segnali dei coevi musicisti evoluti.
