Vladimir Jurowski brings his critically acclaimed LPO Ring Cycle to its conclusion with Götterdämmerung.

The world’s bravest hero and the world’s wisest woman have fallen in love. They don’t realise that the thread of Fate has already snapped – and when sinister forces ensnare the lovers, even the gods of Valhalla can only watch in horror as events accelerate towards a truly apocalyptic conclusion. As Vladimir Jurowski brings his critically acclaimed LPO Ring Cycle to its conclusion, Svetlana Sozdateleva (‘compelling’: Bachtrack) heads an outstanding international cast in a drama of star-crossed passion and ultimate evil; of treachery, courage and a love more powerful than the end of the world.

Please note this performance lasts approximately 6 hours 15 minutes including one 75-minute interval and one 20-minute interval.

Sung in German with English surtitles.

Concert generously supported by members of the Orchestra’s Ring Cycle Syndicate.
