Description:

Deutsche Oper Berlin's latest "Ring of the Nibelung" four-part film, second installment for sale by the minute: Valkyrie. The Deutsche Oper Berlin, which has a long and distinguished tradition of staging Wagner's works, has invited Stefan Hareheim, one of the most sought-after directors on the international opera scene, to conduct a new production of "The Ring of the Nibelung" in four parts at the end of 2021, conducted by General Music Director Donald Runnicles. The four-part work was performed in its entirety under the direction of General Music Director Donald Runnicles. The second of the four-part film "Ring of the Nibelung" will be presented in the form of the "Valkyrie". The "grand piano," a key object common to all four parts of "Ring," is placed at the center of the stage, and the stage is filled with dramaturgy and spectacular scenes created by Hareheim's soulful creativity, which is beautifully supported by the magnificent Wagner sound of the orchestra led by Runnicles' impeccable baton.The singing lineup includes the most famous Brünnhilde singer of the day, Nina Stemme, Ian Patterson as Wotan, Elisabet Teige as Sieglinde, Tobias Köhler as Hunding, and other familiar faces from the Bayreuth Festival, as well as Annika Schlicht as Fricka and other members of the Deutsche Oper Berlin's ensemble. The ensemble members of the Deutsche Oper Berlin, including Annika Schlicht as Fricka, are also very active in the production. The production, orchestra, and vocal performance of "Die Walküre" are all in perfect harmony, making this a "Valkyrie" for the new era.
