The Rhinegold according to Salonen - Concert Performance

The second day of the Baltic Sea Festival revolves around the value of water – In the Rhinegold according to Salonen, master conductor Esa-Pekka Salonen and the Finnish National Opera perform Wagner’s The Rhinegold, in which the river gives life to all who live close to it. But at the bottom of the river rests the enchanted Rhinegold that, in the wrong hands, starts a disastrous chain of events that brings about the end of the world. The evening’s conversation is from Riga, and the guests are young super-entrepreneur Marija Ručevska, who has developed a sustainability currency, and sailor Māris Gailis, who, having sailed around the world, has been Latvia’s prime minister, but is now a culture entrepreneur and a Wagner expert.
