on his 20th production with WNO
Wotan’s prophecy of a hero who forges a mighty sword and slays the dragon Fafner comes to pass in this third installment of Wagner’s Ring cycle. When Siegfried (Pär Lindskog) confronts Wotan (Alan Held) and revives the sleeping Brünnhilde (Iréne Theorin), he unwittingly begins the ultimate destruction of the gods. Director Francesca Zambello, conductor Michael Güttler and a cast of opera titans bring this epic production to life!
