Performed by the musicians of Concerto Köln and the Dresdner Festspielorchester under the direction of Kent Nagano, this Siegfried is the fruit of years of research into what would be a historically informed reading of Wagner’s operas.
Now he sets out into the world: Siegfried, the free hero, is to set right what Wotan, the father of the gods, messed up at the beginning of the story. Finally, part three of Wagner's "Ring of the Nibelung" can be experienced in Kent Nagano's original sound project. Siegfried grows up in the forest, reforges the sword Nothung, slays the dragon Fafner, wins from him the "Ring of the Nibelung", breaks Wotan's spear and lovingly awakens the Valkyrie Brünnhilde.
One of the artistic priorities of the Deutsche Oper Berlin has always been and remains the cultivation of the works of Richard Wagner. This means that Richard Wagner's music is firmly anchored in the DNA of this orchestra, its sound characteristics and its repertoire. In the 2024/25 season alone, five Wagner operas are on the programme: DER FLIEGENDE HOLLÄNDER, TANNHÄUSER, LOHENGRIN, TRISTAN UND ISOLDE and DIE MEISTERSINGER VON NÜRNBERG. Time and again, spectacular stagings of the RING DES NIBELUNGEN (in Stefan Herheim's production again in May 2026) have attracted attention. The orchestra's special Wagner tradition is also reflected in the fact that many of its members play in the Bayreuth Festival orchestra. The orchestra brings this expertise with them to Chorin, where they present the most prominent passages from various Wagner operas for an entire afternoon. Members of the top-class soloist ensemble such as Maria Motolygina, Flurina Stucki, Martina Baroni, Attilio Glaser and Byung Gil Kim will be there. Our Kapellmeister Giulio Cilona will conduct.
