GÖTTERDÄMMERUNG
Saturday 28th June, 3.30pm, Hall One
The season ends with the ultimate musical conclusion – the last chapter in Wagner’ s epic‘ Ring Cycle,’ performed by Opera North under music director Richard Farnes. With‘ Götterdämmerung’, the Ring reaches new levels of intimacy and spectacle. On top of Wagner’ s surging orchestral ocean, the stolen ring is fought over with even greater guile and fiercer anger, testing the hero Siegfried’ s qualities of love and valour. In the end, the world will change – against the backdrop of the most overwhelming operatic music ever written.
