On the heels of the release by Deutsche Grammophon of the complete Ring Cycle DVD Box from the Met, this 2CD compilation is the ultimate must-have for any music and Wagner lover.
It includes the highlights of all the “Ring” operas, featuring the stars of the recent New York Met production: Bryn Terfel, Deborah Voigt and Jonas Kaufmann.
Ride of the Valkyries, Prelude from das Rheingold, Siegfried's death are all featured on our 2 CD compilation.

“Terfel is the finest Wotan before the public today...Blythe's brief appearances as Fricka find her in superb voice...Kaufmann is extraordinary as Siegmund; the velvety-chocolate depths of his baritonal-tenor and his aristocratic phrasing...[are] worth the cost of the set alone...Voigt is not the loudest Brunnhilde on record but sounds girlish in Walkure and is note-accurate, although sometimes a little pinched at the top of her range” International Record Review
