SIEGFRIEDOper von Richard WagnerZweiterTag des Bühnenfestspiels „Der Ring des Nibelungen“Premiere am 7. April 2018 im Opernhaus DüsseldorfText vom Komponiste...

We have phantom pains: From April 7th to 13th we wanted to celebrate Richard Wagner's "Ring des Nibelungen" with you in the Düsseldorf Opera House, but instead of Wagner's beguiling floods of sound from the orchestra pit, we are now listening to the monotonous dripping of the domestic tap. High time to change that! On all four days of the “Ring” performance, general music director Axel Kober and director Dorian Dreher chat, sometimes in pairs, sometimes with top-class surprise guests, about “Das Rheingold”, “Die Walküre”, “Siegfried” and “Götterdämmerung”.

#RINGAMRHEIN
Information on the "Ring am Rhein" and the complete recording with the Duisburg Philharmonic at: www.ringamrhein.de "SIEGFRIED" In the third edition, Axel Kober and Dorian Dreher receive a visit from a grumpy dwarf who is trying to get his rebellious foster son out of the way to gain access to power, but behind whom is actually a very nice singer who had to learn his demanding role almost overnight and willingly beats up a can of ravioli for the video talk. A strong hero also honors the virtual men's flat share with a flying visit and tells how one threatens to throw oneself and occasionally the orchestra upside down when forging Nothung. One of these orchestra musicians also has to face special challenges with "Siegfried". In this episode, he shares how to stay focused on the difficult task while firefighters and stagehands go about their work around you.
