Description:

Though only 35 at the time of this performance, Astrid Varnay brought a wealth of experience to Brünnhilde, having first sung the role at 23. What emerges is a portrayal that blends youthful freshness with a depth of interpretation rarely found in singers of her age. Josef Greindl is chillingly effective as Hagen, embodying pure menace. It’s also a treat to hear Regina Resnik in the brief but memorable role of the Third Norn.
