Richard Wagner called “Die Walküre” the “first evening” of the “Ring of the Nibelung”; he called “Das Rheingold” the prologue or “Vorabend”. Musically and dramatically, we are introduced to a radically new and different world when the opening bars of “Die Walküre” resound. A fully developed orchestral palette of Leitmotivs paints a wild storm scene, and the curtain rises on a modest dwelling: a fully human scene that has nothing to do with the gods, dwarves and nymphs of “Das Rheingold”. At the same time, however, the way “Die Walküre” portrays radical beginnings reveals some telling reminiscences of the unfolding of “Das Rheingold”. “Die Walküre” is exciting and deeply feeling drama. The Scala “Ring” Cycle by Guy Cassiers is continued here with, as in “Rheingold”, numerous outstanding opera stars. Most of all, the leading ladies, ever wonderful Waltraud Meier as Sieglinde, marvelous Nina Stemme as a strong Brünnhilde and Ekaterina Gubanova as a convincing Fricka are to be named. Simon O’Neill and John Tomlinson fight a stirring duel as Siegmund and Hunding and Vitalij Kowaljow gives his dark portrayal of Wotan. Daniel Barenboim presents a fantastic musical interpretation of this second and inspiring evening of the “Ring”.
