A truly fascinating look at Wolfgang Wagner's Ring. Simple sets, dramatic use of colour and lighting - the music and libretto are left to drive the story without too many visual distractions. Too bad the video quality isn't great, but many thanks for this!
"This book will not be forgetten" I hope so! After these great production came Chereaus "Ring", the industrial one with followers until today. Very sad the magic one with Solti got lost. And silly me I dont know the conducter of Wieland Wagners and I dont know any more the director of Soltis Ring.😥
René Kollo flying himself into Bayreuth
This was vocally the best year ever for Gwyneth Jones complete Brünhilde. She was stunning!
These extracts were filmed by Brian Large as a trial for filming the Chereau Ring in 1979/80. He also filmed extracts from Parsifal & Meistersinger.
Thank you for this wonderful document!!!

Gwyneth Jones had a disturbing wobble even then
She got worse later but always had a more steady straight top notes.
