Royal Opera

Directed by Barrie Kosky who joins forces with conductor Antonio Pappano in a bold new imagining of the first chapter of Wagner's Ring cycle. When a precious hoard of gold is stolen from the river Rhine, it unleashes a chain of destructive events, pitting gods and mortals against one another for generations. Wagner’s Ring cycle boasts some of the greatest music ever written for the opera stage. Join us as we embark on a spectacular journey into the world of myth, dream and memory, with the figure of Erda – Mother Earth herself – at its centre. This exciting production marks the start of a new Ring cycle for The Royal Opera – with an outstanding cast including Christopher Maltman (Wotan) and Christopher Purves (Alberich). 

Sung in German with English surtitles.
