Die Walküre
Description
Christian Thielemann, 'by common consent the leading Wagner conductor of our time' (Die Presse), returns to Bayreuth for this radiant account of Die Walküre filmed at the 2010 Festival. Two new singers join the cast: Johan Botha as Siegmund, who was showered with praise by the press ('ideal vocal casting' in the words of the critic on the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung) and Edith Haller, with her 'beautiful, strong soprano voice' (Süddeutsche Zeitung) as his sister and lover Sieglinde.
