Das Rheingold

Melbourne Opera proudly presents a brand new production of Wagner’s Das Rheingold – Part One of The Ring of the Nibelung. The first independent production of The Ring in Australia since 1913.

“As the first major opera performance in Melbourne after a protracted Covid shutdown of the live performing arts, Melbourne Opera’s Das Rheingold marks an important moment in the cultural life of the city – the beginning both of Richard Wagner’s Ring Cycle and of a new chapter in the living operatic history of Melbourne.” — Australian Book Review.

“An opera about the end of the world that leaves you feeling uplifted.”
— Sydney Morning Herald. ★★★★
