/PRNewswire/ --

The final part of the Wagner concert series by Marek

Janowski and the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin

"The Ring of the Nibelung" will be the grand finale of the 2012/2013 season of

concert performances of the Wagner concert series, which has been running

for the past three years, performed by the Rundfunk-Sinfonieorchester Berlin

under the direction of Marek Janowski. On 22 and

24 November 2012

the

sounds of "Das Rheingold" (The Rhine Gold) and "Die Walküre" (The Valkyrie)

will ring out in the Berlin Philharmonie with "Siegfried" and "Götterdämmerung"

(Twilight of the Gods) following on 1 and

15 March 2013

.

The four concert evenings include amongst their international singing elite the

voices of Tomasz Konieczny (Wotan), Ricarda Merbeth (Freia), Iris Vermillion

(Fricka), Robert Dean Smith (Siegmund), Petra Lang (Brünnhilde), Stephen

Gould (Siegfried, 1.3.), Matti Salminen (Fafner, Hagen) and Lance Ryan

(Siegfried, 15.3.). The Rundfunkchor Berlin will also take part in the

"Götterdämmerung".

Like all ten parts of the Wagner concert series, the four concerts of the "Ring"

will be recorded by the PentaTone label and Deutschlandradio and later

broadcast and released on Super Audio CDs, one after the other, up to the end

of 2013.

The Wagner concert series places music squarely at the centre of attention.

The absolute listening experience makes it possible to hear otherwise inaudible

nuances in Wagner's works. At the same time the pure reproduction of the

music creates the ideal conditions for the live recording.
