The Rhinegold & The Valkyrie: The Ring of the Nibelung - Volume 1

The Rhinegold & The Valkyrie: The Ring of the Nibelung - Volume 1

Dan McGlaun
4.2/5 ( ratings)
"The Rhinegold & The Valkyrie: The Ring of the Nibelung – Volume 1" is a modern English translation of the first 2 operas of German composer Richard Wagner’s Ring Cycle combined with 32 beautiful color illustrations by Arthur Rackham. Volume 2 with the remaining two operas will be available as a Kindle ebook shortly.

This new translation makes it very easy to follow the storylines of "The Rhinegold" and “The Valkyrie” , as they are written in the modern style of English unlike the 100 year or older translations that are generally available. New fans of The Ring Cycle will be able to focus on the story rather than struggling to interpret the nuances of old English prose. The integrity of Wagner’s characters has been preserved and Rackham’s illustrations add another dimension, helping bring the characters to life while also portraying the fantastic settings that form the backdrop to the drama.
