This is the 9th release in PentaTone’s successful Wagner Edition, and the third release of the cycle 'Der Ring des Nibelungen'. The PentaTone Edition is attracting a lot of positive media attention and is becoming THE Wagner Edition of the 21st century.

In April our recording of Parsifal won a BBC Music Magazine Award for technical excellence. This comes after an Editor’s Choice for Flying Dutchman and Lohengrin (Gramophone), a 'Recording of the Month' for Parsifal (BBC Music Magazine) an 'Opera Choice of the Month' for Meistersinger and Lohengrin (BBC Music Magazine) and 3 x CD of the week for one of the albums in the Sunday Times. The Edition is becoming a collector’s item.
