The Ring in Weimar enters its final round as a drama of hate, jealousy and betrayal. A dark e minor chord opens Richard Wagner's "Götterdämmerung" and creates a threatening atmosphere from the very first moment. The various leitmotifs and themes of the entire tetralogy are brought together in the "Götterdämmerung" to form a musical whole from which there is no escape

The Ring in Weimar enters its third round as a fairy tale of enlightenment and educational drama of a hero and antihero who seeks his origins and discovers his sexuality. What was meant to be a cheerful satyr play becomes a dream and trauma of re-encounters and voyages of discovery in breathtaking time lapse Wotan and Alberich can't let each other hate each other.
