Wagner: The Golden Ring

Wagner: The Golden Ring


A legendary documentary returns to the catalogue - telling the story of the first studio recording of Wagner's Ring Cycle under Solti.

Includes the complete documentary in English and the German version made alongside it. The DVD also comprises 69 minutes of audio highlights from Solti’s Ring in 5.1 surround sound.

“History was made with TV's first long musical documentary capturing the end of '17 massive stereophonic hours of music'. It's also fun to see genuine steerhorns and a joke horse for the immolation as well as a sexy Solti and cutting-edge Nilsson in action.” BBC Music Magazine, August 2007 ****

Cor del Gran Teatre del Liceu & Orquestra Simfònica del Gran Teatre del Liceu, Sebastian Weigle

Recorded at the Gran Teatre del Liceu , Barcelona, 19 July 2006

“The intimacy and urgency [Peter Konwitschny] conjures simply cannot be described: Opera has never been so literally in-your-face.” Andante

“Three-quarters of Peter Konwitschny's Lohengrin plays in a secondary school room… Lohengrin is a pop-star-like saviour greeted with swooning adulation by teddy-bear clutching schoolgirls. Intensely acted, and sung, by all the principals, Konwitschny's approach illuminates and exposes Wagner's contrasting tale of local political squabbles, idealised love, chauvinist behaviour and compromised solutions on every level. ...a vital contemporary staging of the work.” Gramophone Magazine, November 2007
