Loewenberg col. 1013.<br/><br/>"Die Walküre is the music drama that most satisfactorily embodies the theoretical principles of Oper und Drama. A thoroughgoing synthesis of poetry and music is achieved without any notable sacrifice in musical expression. Indeed many of the most powerful passages of the work achieve their effect precisely through the organic relationship of music and text. Die Walküre is generally regarded as the most approachable of the Ring operas and it has certainly proved the most susceptible to performance in extracts." Barry Millington in Grove Music Online. B.

The general title and half title are common to the full scores of all four Ring operas.<br/><br/>Götterdämmerung is the fourth opera in the Ring cycle. Excerpts were first performed in a concert at the Musikverein in Vienna on March 25 1875; the entire work was first performed as part of the Ring cycle at Bayreuth on August 17 1876. <br/><br/>"The final opera of the Ring. provides an appropriately weighty conclusion to the epic cycle. 26 years elapsed from the time Wagner made his first prose draft for the work then called Siegfrieds Tod to the completion of the full score with inevitable consequences in terms of stylistic unity. Retrogressive elements of grand opera exist side by side with motivic integration representative of Wagner's most mature style. And yet the stylistic integrity of Götterdämmerung is scarcely compromised so skilfully are the disparate elements welded together and so intense the dramaturgical conviction. The resources and stamina demanded by the work from both singers and orchestra combined with its sheer length and theatrical potency make it one of the most daunting yet rewarding undertakings in the operatic repertory."
