About
This recording marks a new Frankfurt Ring, produced by Vera Nemirova. After the Rheingold premiere, the Frankfurt Rundschau said “If the Frankfurt Opera can continue to provide this level of interpretation and orchestral and vocal achievement in its Ring, then audiences are really in for an absolutely remarkable treat.” The very experienced artist Terje Stensvold plays the role of Wotan.

Awards and reviews
January 2015
Stensvold is a relatively late-starting but true-sounding baritone Wotan who phrases the god's pronouncements well. Kurt Streit has not lost the subtlety of his Ferrando in his refreshingly straight, unguyed Loge. Jochen Schmeckenbecher similarly avoids the cliches of shouting and yelping while proving you can be a genuinely dark Alberich through pure singing.
December 2014
Dominating the cast is Kurt Streit's magnificent Loge, with consistently clear and distinctive lyric-tone, astoundingly communicative textual delivery and a blend of sexiness, playfulness and acute intelligence...He's splendidly partnered by Terje Stensvold (Wotan), a true Heldenbariton...Weigle is an expert pacer and has a commad of the 'big picture'.
