Die Walküre: Paris Opera
About the Event
Immerse yourself in the sublime world of Wagner's Die Walküre at the Paris Opera: Philippe Jordan conducts the greatest Wagnerian performers of our time with Jonas Kaufmann and Martina Serafin in the leading roles in this new production by Calixto Bieito.
Nothing in the bitingly cruel prelude that is The Rhinegold, could foreshadow the blazing miracle of The Walkyrie whose role within the Ring cycle is clearly to portray the threatened splendor of the gods and to pave the way for the coming of the new, free man, Siegfried. In the history of opera, there is perhaps no picture book more poignant than the three acts of The Walkyrie.
