In spite of the hype of its packaging (whose intent seems to be to persuade that Wagner's Ring is as interesting as the epic Lord of the Rings and Star Wars films), this two-disc set offers a good sampling of highlights from the Metropolitan Opera's production of the complete cycle, unveiled between 2010 and 2012. The production by Robert Lepage generated considerable controversy, particularly over its gargantuan scenic elements, which necessitated rebuilding the Met's stage. Deutsche Grammophon has released the video of the Met's Ring, but there are no indications of plans to release a complete audio version, so this may be the only opportunity for anyone who was not a fan of the visual elements to simply listen to the music.
James Levine conducts the first two operas, but had to withdraw from the project for health reasons and Fabio Luisi, now the Met's principal conductor, leads the last two. Both draw sumptuous, expansive, dramatically surging performances from the Met Orchestra, whose playing throughout is thrilling. The singers are all at least very fine; although their consistency may not stand up to the casts of some recordings, there are no weak links. Several performers stand out for their remarkably astute and memorable singing and acting. Eric Owens' Alberich is exceptionally well-developed and emotionally complex, and his oaken tone is unforgettable. Stephanie Blythe's Fricka is sharply etched and similarly impressive. Jonas Kaufmann's baritonal tenor beautifully suits Siegmund, and he sings with Italianate fervor and heat. Hans-Peter König is chilling in the villainous roles of Fafner, Hunding, and Hagen. The set would make a good but brief introduction to The Ring for the uninitiated, and should be a teaser for anyone curious about the Met's ambitious production.
