Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

This digitally remastered recording is from 1976, the year of English National Opera's mammoth and triumphant Ring cycle. The tapes were laid down during live performances in the Coliseum, home of ENO, and clearly have the qualities one would expect from a performance in that rather cavernous space--sometimes the orchestra balance sounds a little eccentric, and sometimes singers wander too far from the microphone and are simply swallowed up in the sound. But for almost unbearably sustained tension, passion and drama--and some outstanding singing--this is a wonderful set. Rita Hunter is a remarkable Brünnhilde, powerful yet vulnerable, and Norman Bailey sings Wotan with a gripping edge of despair. But ultimately this is Goodall's Ring, of course: he draws everything from savagery to delicacy from the ENO Orchestra, and is alive to every nuance of the drama, both on stage and in the pit. And as if that weren't enough, the translation is a masterpiece. --Warwick Thompson

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb introduction to Wagners epic., 22 Nov 2000
By J. Deas "moriarty" (UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Since becoming interested in Wagners Ring cycle last year i had heard a great deal of praise for this recording which having been deleted for some time has recently been re-mastered and reissued by Chandos records, and i fully agree that it is well worth getting. Reginald Goodall seems to have been criminally overlooked as a great Wagnerian conductor and hearing this work sung in English (which does work!) has made it more accessible to me. I eagerly await the remaining three operas which Chandos tell me will be released over the next few months. If English is your first language and you are thinking of buying one of the many many versions of the Ring Cycle that exist i think you could do no better than start here (i also have the Barenboim/Bayreuth Ring set which is superb but if this had been available last year i would have bought it instead!) Wotan rules ok.
