Ever wanted to know the story of Wagner's 15-hour Ring Cycle? .... Here it is in two and a half minutes.

Now you know the story, hear the music:  Sydney Symphony Orchestra -- Wagner's Ring Adventure (18 -- 21 Sep 2013).

Wagner's 15-hour Ring Cycle...in two and a half minutes

When the forging of a prophesied ring of the Rhine proves more problematic than you’d possibly think, the realms of gods and men prove all the more chaotic for it. Giants, dwarfs, nymphs and deities quarrel and clash, with the fate of the nine worlds in the balance. 

Olivier Award-winning director Richard Jones returns from 2022’s ‘powerful’ (Evening Standard) production of The Valkyrie in ENO’s ongoing Ring Cycle, performing all four epics as part of a five-year collaboration bringing Wagner’s magnum opus to the London Coliseum.

ENO Music Director Martyn Brabbins channels Wagner’s tempestuous score in conducting the ENO Chorus and Orchestra. Wotan, played by John Relyea, is accompanied by Frederick Ballentine (Loge), former Harewood Artist Madeleine Shaw (Fricka), Christine Rice (Erda), Leigh Melrose (Alberich) and James Cresswell (Fafner), amongst others. 

Book your opera tickets to witness the start of a saga, in Wagner’s The Rhinegold.

The Rheingold by Wagner, Richard, From (2023/2023), Directed by Richard Jones,, Conductor Martyn Brabbins, London Coliseum, London, United Kingdom
