In Detail

Wagner’s Ring Cycle boasts some of the greatest music ever written for the opera stage. Join us as we embark on a spectacular journey into the world of myth, dream and memory, with the figure of Erda – Mother Earth herself – at its centre.

Antonio Pappano conducts Barrie Kosky’s bold new imagining of Wagner’s ‘Das Rheingold’ – which marks the start of a new Ring Cycle for The Royal Opera – with an outstanding cast including Christopher Maltman (Wotan) and Christopher Purves (Alberich).

The first of the Royal Opera House's upcoming Cinema Season, which will comprise an astonishing 13 productions, eight of which will be broadcast to screens across the globe.

Sung in German with English subtitles.
