Wagner: Die Walküre - Ligendza, Stewart, Jones, King, Reynolds, Ridderbusch; Stein. Bayreuth, 1972
$14.95
Description:
The performance opens with a burst of energy thanks to James King and Gwyneth Jones, whose portrayals of Siegmund and Sieglinde bring passionate urgency to the first act. Catarina Ligendza launches into the Hojotohos with remarkable ease and then settles into a more shaded, introspective Brünnhilde—her scenes with Wotan are especially revealing, full of subtle emotional shifts. Thomas Stewart brings a compelling mix of bluster and tenderness to Wotan, capturing the complexity of a god torn between power and paternal love.
