Wagner’s ‘Twilight of the Gods’

HANS ABRAHAMSEN Vers le silence (UK Premiere) (c.28 mins)

WAGNER (arr. Wigglesworth) Götterdämmerung – A Symphonic Journey (c.46 mins)

Katherine Broderick, soprano

Ryan Wigglesworth, conductor

Get ready for a thrilling ride as we distil the final part of Wagner’s Ring Cycle into a single musical journey. The flickering light of dawn, the overwhelming passion of love, the ebb and flow of the majestic Rhine, a jawdropping funeral march, and the world consumed by fire and water: this is storytelling at its most dramatic. Chief Conductor Ryan Wigglesworth unleashes the full force of the orchestra in his own adaptation of this music and Katherine Broderick sings Brünnhilde’s triumphant closing scene. Before then, a work which also takes us from the elemental worlds of fire, earth, wind and water, towards silence and a transfigured state. Hans Abrahamsen is one of the great musical imaginations of our time, so don’t miss the UK Premiere of Vers le silence (Towards Silence) from our Composer-in-Association.
