This is the ninth 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.
It is becoming THE Wagner Edition of the 21st century.
In April their 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) a "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.
"[Gould] seems to have the stamina and the power for the role...[Elsner] sings the part with an unfailing beauty of tone and excellent use of the text...That I still believe this Siegfried must be added to any self-respecting Wagner library is mainly because of Janowski's masterly conducting of his first-rate orchestra. There are many marvellous passages."
"This is a lively and enjoyable performance of what Wagner called his 'heroic comedy'...listen to the short but dense Prelude and you'll hear many things that you won't have heard on any other recording, combined with terrific drive...In summary, the whole here is very much more than the sum of its parts - worth acquiring."
