This is the last release in PentaTone’s successful Wagner Edition and the 4th release of the cycle 'Der Ring des Nibelungen'.

The PentaTone Wagner Edition is attracting a lot of positive media attention - it is now considered THE Wagner Edition of the 21st century.

In April 2013 our recording of Parsifal won a BBC Music Magazine Award for technical excellence. This comes after a Gramophone Editor’s Choice for Flying Dutchman and Lohengrin, 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. Parsifal was recently nominated for a Gramophone award.
