Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • We all know and love the Furtwängler Ring Cycle from La Scala that has been available for years. This is a fascinating glimpse of one of the other performances in that run from March 24
  • Set Svanholm and Kirsten Flagstad offer definitive performances as Siegfried and Brünnhilde.
  • Wilhelm Furtwängler had a way with Wagner that defied any one specific approach.

Cons:

  • The sound, although good for the era, is not as good as some of the versions of the well-known broadcasts of this run.
  • The recording begins just after the Wanderer's exit.
