About this product
What does it feel like to devote your life to one thing? How does a man live who brings the most demanding opera literature to the stage through song? The answer incredibly lightly. The film strolls, or rather, floats along with the North German heldentenor Klaus Florian Vogt through European opera houses. Tannhauser, Tristan, Siegfried-Richard Wagner's complex, feared heroic roles; he masters them, he lives with them without fear. Or does he? Gradually, the viewer becomes aware of how much detailed work goes into that lightness, and how many small pieces come together to form a grand puzzle.Intimate moments-for a singer, that means studying a role, it's the moment right before the performance, backstage, before he sings his Tristan on stage for the first time. The nakedness, the doubt, when the smallest mistake occurs. The second portrait of the tenor by Astrid Bscher-13 years after the film InchDer MeistersingerInch-is a cinematic observation of a humble star. InchOnly he who has never known fear can create something new, something of his own,Inch was Richard Wagner's description of a true artist. Klaus Florian Vogt is one such man.

In this enchanting concert, Jonas Kaufmann, one of today's finest tenors, brings his passion for film music to life. Accompanied by the renowned Czech National Symphony Orchestra, Kaufmann takes his audience on a cinematic journey that transcends the silver screen. From the romantic strains of InchWhere Do I BeginInch from Love Story and the poignant InchWhat a Wonderful WorldInch from Good Morning, Vietnam to the evocative InchStrangers in the NightInch from A Man Could Get Killed, each performance embodies the essence of cinema's most iconic moments. Spanning decades of cinematic history, this unforgettable program promises to captivate film and music lovers alike. InchAs an ardent film buff and singer I am naturally very receptive to all the vocal numbers that have been heard in soundtracks all over the world, which is why it was a particular pleasure for me to rummage in the treasury of film music in search of the most beautiful pieces. The result is The Sound of Movies, a collection of wonderful songs from over eighty years of cinematic history. Whether they are accompanied by moving pictures or treated as pure music, they have all found a place in my heart.Inch Jonas Kaufmann
