Description
The legendary production of Wagner's Das Rheingold, directed by Harry Kupfer at Bayreuth Festival Opera with designs by Hans Schavernoch, and conducted by Daniel Barenboim, is considered one of the greatest productions of this titanic work ever staged. For their innovative staging, Kupfer and his team turned away from the work's time of origin and located The Ring at a crossroads of history, a meeting-place of past, present and future, which sets the scene for the story's struggles of power and love.
The world-class cast for Das Rheingold is led by John Tomlinson as a magnificent Wotan, Linda Finnie as Fricka, Graham Clark as Loge and Gunter von Kannen as Alberich.
