Description
Four operas - four stage directors' is the underlying concept 'Ring from Stuttgart'. And by focusing on individualoperas rather than the entire cycle, they were better able to express their individual insights into the well-knowndrama of Siegfried and Wotan.The hugely successful Ring cycle from the Staatsoper Stuttgart is now available on Blu-ray Disc, restored withgreat care for detail and fully remastered in HD. 'At a time when most are struggling to find something new to say about Wagner, Zehelein shattered conventionby allocating the four operas to four different production teams. The results are astonishing as much for the unexpected harmony of the different approaches as for the strength of their diverse insights. Thus deconstructed, Wagner is less totalitarian, more dramatic. The Ring finally looks politically and psychologically modern again.' Financial Times. Directors: Joachim Schlomer, Christoph Nel, Sergio Morabito, Jossi Wieler and Peter Konwitschny and their outstanding cast managed an epoch-making artistic enterprise, which will maintain its place as a highlight of Wagner staging for years to come.
