Saffron Opera Group – Siegfried

After the monumental critical successes of, and standing ovations for, last year’s Das Rheingold and Die Walküre Saffron Opera Group continues its concert Ring Cycle. (“ I have to reach back to memories of Karajan’s days for a Die Walküre that was overall as well sung as this” – Paul Dawson-Bowling, Wagner News). Siegfried tells the action-packed adventure of a brave hero who conquers both gods and monsters to find true love. Wagner expert Michael Thorne leads a cast of international soloists, with the BBC 2015 Chorister of the Year in the role of the Woodbird and a superb orchestra of invited musicians.
