Pros:

  • This cycle treats the listener to two Brünnhildes: Anita Välkki's youthful soprano is in excellent form in Die Walküre and Astrid Varnay summons up enormous dramatic reserves in Siegfried and Götterdämmerung.
  • The part of Wotan is different in each opera, offering a pot pourri of great bass-baritones: Theo Adam in Das Rheingold, Hans Hotter in Die Walküre and Otto Wiener in Siegfried.
  • The cycle also features Franz Crass as Fasolt, and Grace Hoffman as Fricka.

Cons:

  • None to mention.
