WAGNER, R.: Ring des Nibelungen (Der): Siegfried [Opera] (O'Neill, Hoare, Volle, Nigl, Selig, Kampe, Bavarian Radio Symphony, Rattle)

Following the 2015 release of The Rhinegold and The Valkyrie in 2019 of Richard Wagner’s The Ring of the Nibelung, BR-Klassik is thrilled to present Siegfried, conducted by Sir Simon Rattle. This live recording, which took place on February 3 and 5, 2023, at Munich’s Isarphilharmonie im Gasteig, follows the enthusiastic reception of the previous productions.

With The Rheingold, Rattle convincingly debunked the long-standing notion that he and Wagner were not a good match, and The Valkyrie further solidified his mastery. His recent performance of Siegfried with the Bavarian Radio Symphony Orchestra, alongside a first-class line up of Wagnerian singers, reaffirms his deep understanding and impeccable interpretation of Wagner’s music. Now, just a few months after this remarkable live event, this powerful and immensely popular music drama has been released on three outstanding CDs.
