A uniquely Australian production of Wagner's epic Ring Cycle comes to Melbourne
In 2013 Opera Australia presents Der Ring des Nibelungen (the Ring cycle) at the Arts Centre, Melbourne.
2013 marks the 200th anniversary of the birth of Richard Wagner. So, during November and December 2013, we will perform three complete cycles of the four mighty operas which make up his epic vision:
| Das Rheingold |
| Die Walküre |
| Siegfried |
| Götterdämmerung |
Leading an inspired cast of outstanding Wagnerian artists from around the world is the acclaimed Australian director Neil Armfield, conductor Richard Mills and designer Robert Cousins.
The international cast includes English soprano Susan Bullock as Brünnhilde, Norwegian bass-baritone Terje Stensvold as Wotan, German tenor Stefan Vinke as Siegfried and Australian Helden baritone John Wegner as Alberich.
Tickets for the Melbourne Ring Cycle will go on sale from 23 July, 2012. Join us, and share in an adventure through one of the greatest works of art in western music.
