Why you should see your first Ring in Budapest

David Karlin, 4th December

A rollicking good story woven into music by a composer without peers, the ultimate operatic expression of the High Romantic aesthetic, and an opera that actually feels short at five hours.

The Met's Ring Cycle begins with an impressive Das Rheingold

David Karlin, 25th April
