Second day of the stage festival 'The Ring of the Nibelung' by Richard Wagner
Continuation of the family saga
Benedikt von Peter stages the third part of Richard Wagner's 'Ring' tetralogy as an intense search for identity. Isolated in the forest, Siegfried has grown up. Unaware of his origins, the young hero succeeds in conquering the Ring and freeing Brünnhilde. But he has no idea that he has long been part of Wotan's perfidious plans. Wagner's "fairytale opera" combines spectacular dragon fights with ecstatic love duets and evokes mythical images of nature.
