Aftenen opera var 1. del fra "Ringen" (Rhinguldet).
Optagelsen er med i Gramophones finale om bedste opera DVD i 08/09, og sælges derfor enormt billigt hos MDT (48,20£), altså billigere end 1 billet til en opera. Her er det 4 operaer.
Efter at have hørt og set Rhinguldet, tør jeg godt anbefale at få den anskaffet. Alt er på højt niveau, handlingen menneskeliggøres, orkester og sangere er formidable.
Glæder mig til 2. del
RICHARD WAGNER
The Copenhagen Ring
Royal Danish Opera
Production by Kasper Bech Holten
Seven-DVD set of Wagner’s gargantuan Ring Cycle – the celebrated, critically-acclaimed production at the Royal Danish Opera, come to be known as the Copenhagen Ring. First release of one of the most successful Ring Cycles of recent years, which received acclaim from critics across the world. Striking, memorable and controversial staging by Kasper Bech Holten. The action, experienced as an extended flashback, presents Wagner’s epic as a family saga from a feminist perspective. The production is visually stunning, disturbing and at times explicit.
“One Ring cycle I can recommend heartily – musically satisfying, dramatically engaging and full of memorable imagery.” Opera Now
“Superbly acted, more than decently sung and executed with a technical bravura that puts recent London stagings to shame.” Sunday Times

To listen is an effort, and just to hear is no merit. A duck hears also. Igor Stravinsky
