Wagner - Der Ring des Nibelungen: CD Box Set
Decca’s landmark recording of Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen conducted by Sir Georg Solti is the most celebrated classical recording in history. Decca proudly presents the definitive high bit-depth transfer of this legendary recording, carefully remastered in 2012.
Sir Georg Solti’s recording of Wagner’s epic music-drama Der Ring des Nibelungen was a recording project on a scale without precedent and the first-ever studio recording of Wagner’s masterpiece. Recorded between September 1958 and November 1965, it was masterminded by legendary producer John Culshaw and his technical team under the direction of chief engineer Gordon Parry. This massive undertaking set new standards in both opera recording and the possibilities of the effective and imaginative use of stereo.
The combination of Sir Georg Solti and the Vienna Philharmonic with an international cast of the greatest Wagnerian singers available resulted in a recording which was greeted with unprecedented enthusiasm and rave reviews and which quickly won numerous international awards.
