Theatrical group La Fura del Baus stage this reworking of Wagner's GOTTERDAMMERUNG, which forms the forth and final part in Wagner's RING cycle. The impressive surroundings of Valencia's Palau de les Arts Reina Sofia provide a suitable backdrop, as this 2008 version of Wagner's piece unfolds.
This is an absolutely stunning production of Gotterdammerung presented by Valencia. They are really positioning themselves to become one of the most authentic houses around. The singers were amazing especially Matti who presented a sterling performance and Lance who had some superb moments. However, the star of the show is the American dramatic soprano Jennifer Wilson who thrills with very vocal power machine but still manages nuance, intelligence, and femininity in her output. Finally we have a real Brunnhilde again!
