“…Harry Kupfer's modernistic but clear-sighted staging… confirms Barcelona's Ring as the best recent cycle on DVD. Its darkly gleaming hi-tech settings centre around the massive limbs of the World-Ash, invaded and withered by technology as the curse advances. ...much, like the final image - Alberich recovering the carbonized Ring, only for it to crumble in his fingers, while children replant the World-Ash - is visionary.”
