Bryn Terfel, Claudio Abbado - Wagner: Wotan's Farewell (from Die Walküre, Excerpt)

Watch Bryn Terfel sing Wotan’s both powerful and touching farewell from Wagner’s 'Die Walküre' together with Claudio Abbado and the Lucerne Festival Orchestra. We celebrate Bryn Terfel on his birthday on 9 November. This performance comes from the inaugural concert of Abbado’s Lucerne Festival Orchestra in 2003, where Terfel joined the newly formed ensemble for the final scene of Wagner’s 'Die Walküre'.

In addition to the vivid "symphonic sketches" of La mer, which shimmers in a thousand moods and colours before culminating in a grand finale, the concert features the suite from the much lesser-known mystery play Le Martyre de Saint Sébastien, a collaboration with the Italian writer Gabriele D'Annunzio. Completing the programme, superstar bass-baritone Bryn Terfel, one of Abbado's favorite singers, lends his powerful voice to the moving final scene from Wagner's Die Walküre.
