ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ON THIS PERFORMANCE
Conductor Antonio Pappano and director Barrie Kosky discuss the creative process behind bringing Die Walküre, the second chapter of Wagner’s Ring cycle, to life. Die Walküre (The Valkyrie) is the second work of Richard Wagner’s four-opera cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen; it follows Das Rheingold and precedes Siegfried and Götterdämmerung (Twilight of the Gods). It has become the most performed opera of the cycle, loved and admired for its nuanced and intelligent exploration of complex family entanglements, expressed through music of astonishing power – perhaps nowhere more so than in the glorious music for the incestuous lovers Siegmund and Sieglinde.
