Ring of the Niblung - Richard Wagner

An English language dramatic reading of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Niblung) referred to by the composer as a Bühnenfestspiel ("stage festival play"). Wagner was both composer and librettist for the epic dramas comprising "the Ring Cycle". His intent was that a prelude, Das Rheingold (The Rhinegold), should be performed of an evening and that the trilogy of Die Walküre (The Valkyrie), Siegfried and Götterdämmerung (Twilight of the Gods) should thence be performed on the three succeeding days. - Summary by Brian Fullen Cast List: Alberich: PaulWelford Brünnhilde: Availle Donner: Brian Fullen Erda: Agnes Robert Behr Fafner: ToddHW Fasolt: Dave Lantz Flosshilde: AliceStein Freia: Elsie Selwyn Fricka: dc Froh: Michael Faze Gerhilde: Alan Mapstone Grimgerde: Brian Fullen Gunther: Alan Mapstone Gutrune: Leanne Cvetan Hagen: Algy Pug Helmwige: redrun Hunding: Alan Mapstone Loge: Alan Mapstone Mime: Adrian Stephens First Norn: Agnes Robert Behr Second Norn: Dottedrhythm Third Norn: AliceStein Ortlinde: AliceStein Rossweisse: Leanne Cvetan Schwertleite: Scarbo Siegfried: James Escareno Sieglinde: Agnes Robert Behr Siegmund: Brian Fullen Siegrune: Belinda McReynolds Vassals: Algy Pug, Alan Mapstone, Brian Fullen Waltraute: Dottedrhythm Wellgunde: Leanne Cvetan Woglinde: Wildcard Women: Agnes Robert Behr, AliceStein, Dottedrhythm, Leanne Cvetan Wood Bird: Alan Mapstone Wotan (The Wanderer): Beeswaxcandle Stage Directions: Brian Fullen Editing: Brian Fullen, PaulWelford, AliceStein
