The plot revolves around a magic ring that grants the power to rule the world, forged by the Nibelung dwarf Alberich from gold stolen from the river Rhine. Several mythic figures struggle for possession of the Ring, including Wotan, the chief of the Gods. The hero Siegfried wins the Ring, as Wotan intended, but is eventually betrayed and slain. Finally, the Valkyrie Brünnhilde, Siegfried's lover and Wotan's estranged daughter, returns the Ring to the Rhine. Episode List

Chéreauʼs famous production is not as visually striking as Wieland Wagner and without having studied it seems a bit muddled to me, but full of interesting ideas. What you really should see this for is Boulezʼ conducting: not for a moment bombastic or indulgent, it brings out Wagnerʼs infinite subtleties ignored by the Teutonic crowd. Read Foucaultʼs praise for both in Dits et écrits IV, No. 286. Rating concerns this production (composition: 99).

Overall, the most satisfying Ring cycle on video. It's especially good to have Donald McIntyre's Wotan preserved in such wonderful form and voice.
