The fight for the ring continues: Siegfried, the son of Siegmund and Sieglinde, is being raised in the forest by Alberich's brother Mime. Mime hopes that the fearless and ignorant Siegfried will win the ring for him. Under his tutelage, Siegfried reforges the sword Nothung and slays Fafner. He sees through Mime's cunning, takes the ring and magic cloak and kills his foster father. Guided by a forest bird, he goes in search of the sleeping Brünnhilde...


In the third part of the tetralogy, often also called the scherzo, Richard Wagner brings the primal forces of nature to life - for example in the famous "Waldweben" - and spans the arc from the dark, grumbling beginning in B flat minor to the love duet "Lichtende Liebe, Lachender Death' in C major, one of the most ecstatic moments of the cycle. Director and set designer Alexander Müller Elmau is continuing his successful "Ring" production with images rich in myth and symbolism with this work, which is somewhere between fairy tale and comedy, in which the dark shadows of the "Twilight of the Gods" are already looming and the end of a world order is being announced.

English

Der Kampf um den Ring geht weiter: Siegfried, der Sohn Siegmunds und Sieglindes, wird von Alberichs Bruder Mime im Wald aufgezogen. Mime hofft, dass der furchtlose und unwissende Siegfried für ihn den Ring gewinnt. Unter seiner Anleitung schmiedet Siegfried das Schwert Nothung neu und erschlägt Fafner. Er durchschaut Mimes List, nimmt Ring und Tarnkappe an sich und tötet seinen Ziehvater. Geleitet von einem Waldvogel begibt er sich auf die Suche nach der schlafenden Brünnhilde ...


Im dritten Teil der Tetralogie, oft auch das Scherzo genannt, lässt Richard Wagner die Urkräfte der Natur – beispielsweise im berühmten „Waldweben“ – musikalisch lebendig werden und spannt den Bogen vom düster grummelnden Beginn in b-Moll bis zum Liebesduett „Leuchtende Liebe, lachender Tod“ in C-Dur, einem der ekstatischsten Momente des Zyklus. Regisseur und Bühnenbildner Alexander Müller Elmau setzt mit dem zwischen Märchen und Komödie angesiedelten Werk, in dem bereits die dunklen Schatten der „Götterdämmerung“ aufziehen und sich das Ende einer Weltenordnung ankündigt, seine erfolgreiche „Ring“ Inszenierung mit mythisch-symbolträchtigen Bildern fort.
