The tetralogy of four operas that form Der Ring des Nibelungen (“The Ring of the Nibelung”) explores the conjunction of love and power in a mythic landscape in which true power resides in possession of the Ring. Composed over more than a quarter of a century, monumental in scale, and structured after the precedent of Greek drama, the cycle was first performed in 1876. 

Staged by the award-winning director Stefan Herheim, this innovative new production from Deutsche Oper Berlin features a leading international cast conducted by Sir Donald Runnicles. The box set includes a bonus “making of” documentary and interviews with members of Funding Wagner Circle.

Nina Stemme (Brünnhilde), Clay Hilley (Siegfried), Derek Welton (Wotan - Das Rheingold), Iain Paterson (Wotan - Die Walküre/Wanderer), Elisabeth Teige (Sieglinde), Brandon Jovanovich (Siegmund), Albert Pesendorfer (Hagen)
