DasRheingold
The first instalment of the Royal Opera's eagerly-awaited Ring cycle for the 1990s, directed by Richard Jones and starring John Tomlinson as Wotan, the leader of the Gods.
In this "introductory evening" (as Wagner called it) the precious Gold is stolen from the River Rhine, and as the builders take the wraps off Valhalla,
Wotan finds himself struggling to keep conflicting promises.
The Forging of the Ring, Part One.
Before curtain-up, Piers Burton-Page takes us behind the scenes of the epic venture that is the creation of a new Ring cycle. Where do you start? Answers from singers, conductor and members of the production team.

The Tempestuous
Loveliness of Terror. That one line from Shelley's poem celebrating the painting of the Medusa sums up the romantic obsession with pleasure and pain, horror and death as essential for the true understanding of beauty. Professor Christopher Frayling discusses this passion for the art of darkness with Sarah O'Brien Twohig.
