Ring of the Niblung

An English language dramatic reading of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen (The Ring of the Niblung) referred to by the composer as a Bühnenfestspiel ("stage festival play"). Wagner was both composer and librettist for the epic dramas comprising "the Ring Cycle". His intent was that a prelude, Das Rheingold (The Rhinegold), should be performed of an evening and that the trilogy of Die Walküre (The Valkyrie), Siegfried and Götterdämmerung (Twilight of the Gods) should thence be performed on the three succeeding days. - Summary by Brian Fullen Cast List: Alberich: PaulWelford [https://librivox.org/reader/18075] Brünnhilde: Availle [https://librivox.org/reader/4174] Donner: Brian Fullen [https://librivox.org/reader/17713] Erda: Agnes Robert Behr [https://librivox.org/reader/18543] Fafner: ToddHW [https://librivox.org/reader/6754] Fasolt: Dave Lantz [https://librivox.org/reader/12627] Flosshilde: AliceStein [https://librivox.org/reader/19161] Freia: Elsie Selwyn [https://librivox.org/reader/13257] Fricka: dc [https://librivox.org/reader/16764] Froh: Michael Faze [https://librivox.org/reader/19151] Gerhilde: Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Grimgerde: Brian Fullen [https://librivox.org/reader/17713] Gunther: Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Gutrune: Leanne Cvetan [https://librivox.org/reader/18246] Hagen: Algy Pug [https://librivox.org/reader/4705] Helmwige: redrun [https://librivox.org/reader/17752] Hunding: Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Loge: Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Mime: Adrian Stephens [https://librivox.org/reader/13577] First Norn: Agnes Robert Behr [https://librivox.org/reader/18543] Second Norn: Dottedrhythm [https://librivox.org/reader/19180] Third Norn: AliceStein [https://librivox.org/reader/19161] Ortlinde: AliceStein [https://librivox.org/reader/19161] Rossweisse: Leanne Cvetan [https://librivox.org/reader/18246] Schwertleite: Scarbo [https://librivox.org/reader/14297] Siegfried: James Escareno [https://librivox.org/reader/17759] Sieglinde: Agnes Robert Behr [https://librivox.org/reader/18543] Siegmund: Brian Fullen [https://librivox.org/reader/17713] Siegrune: Belinda McReynolds [https://librivox.org/reader/19014] Vassals: Algy Pug [https://librivox.org/reader/4705], Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170], Brian Fullen [https://librivox.org/reader/17713] Waltraute: Dottedrhythm [https://librivox.org/reader/19180] Wellgunde: Leanne Cvetan [https://librivox.org/reader/18246] Woglinde: Wildcard [https://librivox.org/reader/19199] Women: Agnes Robert Behr [https://librivox.org/reader/18543], AliceStein [https://librivox.org/reader/19161], Dottedrhythm [https://librivox.org/reader/19180], Leanne Cvetan [https://librivox.org/reader/18246] Wood Bird: Alan Mapstone [https://librivox.org/reader/7170] Wotan (The Wanderer): Beeswaxcandle [https://librivox.org/reader/17576] Stage Directions: Brian Fullen [https://librivox.org/reader/17713] Editing: Brian Fullen [https://librivox.org/reader/17713], PaulWelford [https://librivox.org/reader/18075], AliceStein [https://librivox.org/reader/19161]
