With the fourth part of the “Ring des Nibelungen”, the
curtain descended on the central work of Richard
Wagner.
After “Siegfried” this spring, OehmsClassics is now
presenting “Götterdämmerung” from Hamburg in an
excellent cast. Simone Young created a sensation with
the Hamburg Philharmonic at the premiere; Claus
Guth’s directing concept was variably received by
public and press.
The features of the 4-CD box are of high quality, as
with the previous productions from Hamburg: alongside
an extensive preface by Udo Bermbach, the booklet
also includes the libretto in German and English.
