Siegfried
Die Ring des Nibelungen or the Ring is an opera tetralogy by Richard Wagner and the most extensive work in operatic history. Set in a mythical world, the four part Ring cycle tells the story of love, hatred, power and greed.
Siegfried is the third part of the epic saga by Richard Wagner. Siegfried’s fairy-tale story is set in today’s restless mental landscape, where the value of humanity is measured in the size of steroid-pumped muscles.
