Summary

Michael Schulz directs this starkly dramatic staging of Richard Wagner's "Die Walküre," the famed opera that serves as the First Day of Wagner's "Ring Cycle" and includes the composer's signature "Ride of the Valkyries." English soprano Catherine Foster co-stars as the iconic Brunnhilde, with American tenor Erin Caves singing the role of Siegmund and German soprano Kirsten Blanck appearing as his twin sister -- and love interest -- Sieglinde.
