DAS RHEINGOLD STREAMING MARCH 6 AT 10AM PACIFIC
Richard Wagner’s Landmark Saga Begins In Das Rheingold
Get ready for Das Rheingold, the first chapter in Richard Wagner’s four-part epic, The Ring of the Nibelung.
Travel to a world where gods, giants, and dwarves vie for control over the realms of myths and mortals. There, a Faustian bargain has been struck: The divine ruler Wotan has traded his sister-in-law, the goddess of love, to the giants for a new palace. But now he’s having second thoughts. And the only way to get her back is to find something more seductive than love: the power to rule the world.
As Wotan, bass-baritone Greer Grimsley leads a powerhouse cast including mezzo-soprano Jamie Barton, bass-baritone Falk Struckmann, mezzo-soprano Ronnita Miller, and tenor Stefan Margita, all under the baton of Sir Donald Runnicles, former San Francisco Opera music director.
One ring will rule them all. One ring will doom them all. Discover its origins as Wagner’s celebrated tetralogy directed by Francesca Zambello begins this weekend, starting Saturday at 10am PST. Directed for the screen by Frank Zamacona. A co-production of San Francisco Opera and Washington National Opera.
