[Classical DVD Masterpieces Selection 2021] Opera, Ballet, and Classical Music at Home! The second DVD campaign with the lowest price ever! This is a recording of "Gold of the Rhine" from the 1980 recording of "The Ring of the Nibelung," which became very popular when Patrice Chéreau, an active theater director, was asked to direct the 100th anniversary performance of the Bayreuth premiere of "The Ring of the Nibelung" (1976). Although the setting of the opera in the Industrial Revolution was controversial at first, it was later highly praised by Bayreuth audiences, and with the tight performance conducted by Boulez, it is still talked about as a masterpiece.
