Art/Literary - Musik / music | | Deutsch Begriff oder Satz: durchwaltend | From a review of a Mahler symphony:
". . . ob die Durchbildung der Sätze so konsequent und zwingend, das Beiwerk so notwendig, die Stimmführung so überzeugend, der Orchesterklang nicht bloß zerstreut und zerstäubt, sondern auch so charakteristisch durchwaltend, so einheitlich ist. . . ." |
| | | commanding, dominating (also adj. dominant) | Erklärung:
quite a few possibilities for this one, "walten" is old German for "regieren", hence I'd go for something like commanding, dominating. In the old days, "someone waltet und schaltet"...meaning they are in control. |

| Hinweis von Fragesteller an den AntwortendenActually, I would've liked some explanation of the difference between "walten" and "durchwalten" (I already knew what "walten" means), but oh well---most everyone seems to agree on "commanding" or some variation, and it feels right, so I'll go with it. Thanks, all!

| authoritative
Erklärung:
another suggestion. characteristically authorative goes together well and anyway, it does fit in with Mahler's music. I also like 'commanding' in Klaus's suggestion.

I think this is what is being connoted here, but still just a guess on my part.

most references to durchwalten in the Internet seem to be of a religious nature, so maybe a word like \'pervade\' is what you\'re looking for, e.g. pervade by the Holy Spirit
