Beethovens Gefangenenchor hat an Aktualität nichts verloren. Eine Musik und ein Text der unter die Haut geht und zum Nachdenken anregt. Ludwig van Beethoven, nicht nur ein Genie, sondern auch ein freiheitsliebender Mensch, der jegliche Willkür und Bevormundung ablehnte. Auch das sollte man nicht vergessen, wenn man seine Musik hört!
So beautiful. My choir, the San Antonio Liederkranz, practiced this about an hour ago. Viva Beethoven!
Not only one of the greatest moments in opera..... but one of the great moments in Western art.
Oh man, definitely one of my most favourite Beethoven pieces! Sóó beautiful, sóó intensely sad...
This piece really gives me goose pimpels all over. My father used to play this very loud and as a kid I already loved it. This was very well sung and I wonder how, as I pressume, these americain singers, have such a good german pronounciation.
Love it.
Wundervoll! Könnte ich mir immer wieder anhören... verursacht Gänsehaut!
This is what should have been played in "The Shawshank Redemption".
when ever i hear this melody it always just about makes me cry and i am 70 now
This is the defining moment. Freedom above all. These German words are those which count.
Oh welche Lust das zu hören....;-)
Amazing, this is where we are right now again, especially in Germany, and in the year of Beethovens 250 aniversiry!
Even though it was 7 month ago you posted your comment I'd still like you to know how much I was takend by it. Personally I am experiencing a kind of (emotional) freedom - and this wonderful piece of music composed by Ludwig van Beethoven can actually be applied to various life-situations.
Exposed to this opera through my parents, when I was a child it caught my deepest soul - and stayed with me forever more. Amazing how music is able to open and broaden receptive peoples minds.
I to saw the production when it was in Houston. I loved it tremendously!
Beethoven....geniaal!!!!
Did you notice that Eric Cutler is wearing a priest's collar?!! Both First and Second prisoners have great voices! They performed this in Houston, TX this year and I saw it.
Ausgeseichnet!! Outstanding!
I also saw the production when it was in Houston. Had goosebumps.
I saw with the Welsh National Opera
Fidelio: Royal Opera House Live screening - Tuesday 17th March, 2020.
Roco el carcelero y padre de Marzelline enamorada de Fidelio decide por unos momentos dejar salir al patio a los reclusos de su cárcel,los cuales exclamen el gozo del aire y del sol, a pesar de ser unos momentos muy breves,de libertad y felicidad.
Beethoven Rules!! Genius. I see this as maybe a kind of prelude ,I think here he is formulating his idea of Ode to joy from his wonderful ninth symphony, a inspiration for freedom hope, joy and liberty! (just my opinion)
Methinks your opinion be right
@@sepandghanouni2271 Methinks as well.
magnificent ty GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!
Hearing the NYC Gay Men's Chorus sing this excerpt was quite moving.
Wonderful! Thank's for sharing.
Though I like the 1805 version even better (the one that trails off into a final "Ja, leise!"), this is is still a gorgeous piece of choral writing. I, too have often fantasized: what if you went to the most oppressed and tyrannical places in he world and simply played this music? An amazing message of hope.

Kann es etwas schöneres geben, als dieses Stück???
Ist das nicht immer wieder Gänsehaut-Musik?
le plus grand, éternellement
is the full opera available anywhere?
Yes in any music shop
The prisoners:
Oh what joy to be in the open air
And draw breath easily!
Here alone, here alone is life,
The dungeon is a tomb.
First Prisoners:
With confidence we will
Trust in God’s help!
Hope whispers to me softly:
We shall be free, we shall find rest.
All the others:
O heavens! Deliverance! What a blessing!
O freedom! Will you return?
Second Prisoner:
Speak quietly! Restrain yourselves!
We are observed by eyes and ears.
All:
Speak quietly! Restrain yourselves!
We are observed by eyes and ears.
Oh what joy to be in the open air
And draw breath easily!
Here alone, here alone is life.
Speak quietly! Restrain yourselves!
We are observed by eyes and ears.
Who else here was brought by Ken Clarke ?

!!! O welche LuFt!!! Lust is ganz etwas anderes!
That was not written by me!
Why do they sing "O welsche Lust" ("O French-style sex!") instead of "O welche Lust" ("O what a joy")??? That's hilarious!
I can't imagine a better way to celebrate.
Although I am pretty disappointed by the bad sound and dragging of the Met choir, I think the bass soloist has a great voice.
Chris Toff The tenor as well!
Beethoven kam nach Wien, ging in den Wienerwald und da ist ihm das eingefallen
"Oh Welsche Lust" , "Hawltet euch zurück" und das Tempo ist an der Grenze zum Spannunglosen. Ich bin enttäuscht, von der MET hätte ich mehr erwartet...
crap sound quality. distorted
