| With his Ring Cycle, Richard Wagner set out to create a new style of opera that would change the world. The fourth and final opera, Götterdämmerung, is a powerful family drama with breathtaking scenes of love, betrayal and loss. Sue Elliott returns to the stage of the Concert Hall with an entertaining and informative exploration of the opera’s creation, its themes and musical motives and its context within the cycle as a whole. Using audio and video examples, this guided journey through the final chapter of Wagner’s magnum opus is designed to help you make the most of your experience in the Concert Hall. | |
