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.

Castorf’s visually stylish Götterdämmerung brings no resolution

David Larkin, 1st August

At the end, there was a profusion of boos and applause for the creative team: Castorf and co had given us a Ring cycle that was by turns infuriatingly indulgent, interestingly provocative, visually beautiful, puzzling and rewarding.
