Description:

This performance of Götterdämmerung was recorded just two days before the more familiar broadcast version and offers a fascinating comparison. It serves as a reminder of how much can evolve over a short period—phrasing, pacing, and dramatic choices subtly shift, creating a distinct musical impression.

The sound here is slightly clearer than in the broadcast, making it a valuable alternative for listeners. Kirsten Flagstad is glorious as Brünnhilde, her voice soaring with heroic strength and expressive nuance.
