Placido Domingo, Deborah Voigt and Jane Eaglen star in the second of the four operas in Wagner's Ring Cycle. Siegmund and Sieglinde are brother and sister - but by the time they discover that, they've fallen in love. Their father Wotan, the leader of the gods, is forced to disown them by his nagging wife Fricka, who's horrified by their illicit relationship. But Brunnhilde - the Valkyrie of the title and another of Wotan's army of illegitimate children - is so moved by Siegmund's love for Sieglinde that she decides to defy her father and help the lovers. Presented by Stephanie Hughes.
