Prologue to The Ring of Nibelung , the greatest lyrical saga in the history of music, The Rhinegold is only the introduction to a vast epic entirely devoted to the quest for the mystery of origins (1 prologue and three days, 15 hours of music, 34 characters and an orchestra of nearly 125 musicians…). The opening on a simple E flat major chord held for the first 137 bars is the perfect reflection of the musician's orchestral genius and innovative ambition. Because Wagner indeed invents here a new era and a musical world without equivalent. This titanic project occupied Wagner for thirty years and it remains to this day unique in the history of opera. Yannick Nézet-Séguin and the Rotterdam Orchestra have offered unforgettable performances of theFlying Dutchman and A Woman Without a Shadow . New appointment this season with L'Or du Rhin , the first part of an upcoming tetralogy, which we already imagine on the same peaks of intensity.

Prologue de L’Anneau de Nibelung, la plus grande saga lyrique de l’histoire de la musique, L’Or du Rhin n’est que l’introduction d’une vaste une épopée entièrement consacrée à la quête du mystère des origines (1 prologue et trois journées, 15h de musique, 34 personnages et un orchestre de près de 125 musiciens…). L’ouverture sur un simple accord en mi bémol majeur tenu pendant les 137 premières mesures est le parfait reflet du génie orchestral et de l’ambition novatrice du musicien. Car Wagner invente bien ici une ère nouvelle et un monde musical sans équivalent. Ce projet titanesque occupa Wagner pendant trente ans et il reste à ce jour unique dans l’histoire de l’opéra. Yannick Nézet-Séguin et l’Orchestre de Rotterdam ont offert ces dernières années d’inoubliables exécutions du Vaisseau fantôme et d’Une femme sans ombre. Nouveau rendez-vous cette saison avec L’Or du Rhin, premier volet d’une Tétralogie à venir, que l’on imagine déjà sur les mêmes cimes d’intensité.
