ISBN: 0847834638

Author: Ellison, Nancy

Condition: New

A beautifully produced volume celebrating Wagners Ring in full-page color photographs, and complete with historical materials from the Metropolitan Operas archives. In this unique volume, Nancy Ellison captures James Levines and Otto Schenks landmark production of The Ring of the Nibelung as it was performed in full for the last time at the Metropolitan Opera in 2009. Wagners Ring is a supreme challenge for any opera company, and no other staging matches the spirit of romanticism of Schenks vision, which is based on original notes written by Wagner. Ellison presents the worlds greatest operatic journey in a visual progression that leads readers through the complete narrative of each music drama: Das Rheingold, Die Walkre, Siegfried, and Gtterdmmerung.
