Christopher Cook presents the third instalment of the Proms Ring cycle live from the Royal Albert Hall, London.
Christoph Eschenbach conducts a concert performance of the recent Chatelet production of Wagner's Siegfried. It took Wagner 16 years to complete but the result is a brilliant and powerful score in which the young Siegfried discovers his true identity, wins back the all-powerful ring and falls in love with the Valkyrie, Brunnhilde.
