Das Rheingold: Alberich's curse (Hermann Becht)

[jackal59]

When Gustav Neidlinger sings this, it's terrifying and powerful. This is just kvetching.

I love this production, it was the first full Ring I've seen. By today's standards it's not that "modern" but makes the characters very human. And it has a far, FAR better Brünnhilde, Siegmund and Sieglinde than the Met version.

Hermann Becht won an opera reward for his performance in the ring cycle :D

Such emotion

3:39 Oh, oh. This looks serious. A laxative and a hot water bottle should take care of that.

I would love to see this entire production on video!

@whatsreallyhoodbitch So buy it, or even rent it from Netflix. But if you haven't seen it before, I'd start with the more traditional Met production.
