Der Ring des Nibelungen
Third Day
Götterdämmerung
Libretto by Richard Wagner

Götterdämmerung (Twilight of the Gods) is the final opera of Wagner’s epic tetralogy Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Nibelung) in which his visionary masterpiece reaches its cataclysmic conclusion. Betrayal and death, murder and remorse, lie at the opera’s heart, in a work that draws together every plot element in writing of blazing intensity. As the Ring is restored to the Rhinemaidens, the age of the gods ends, with the opera offering the certainty of destruction but the consolation of renewal. Sir Donald Runnicles conducts an internationally acclaimed cast in this innovative new production by Norwegian director Stefan Herheim.
