Wagner’s Der Ring Des Nibelungen – 22 LP Decca Box Set
1970 UK stereo 22-LP boxed set of the complete edition of Richard Wagner’s four part opera, ‘Der Ring des Nibelungen’, also known as ‘The Ring Cycle’ featuring the four operas ‘Das Rheingold’, ‘Die Walkre’, ‘Siegfried’ and ‘Gtterdmmerung’.

There is also a unique three record introduction to ‘The Ring’ set narrated by Deryck Cooke featuring excerpts from the four operas.

Each opera is in its own separate wooden ended partition with full size libretto booklets containing synopsis & full transcription for the operas.
The performance is the classic version by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra conducted by Georg Solti, a powerful orchestral drama, phenomenal performance and superb sound.

The whole set is enclosed in a very weighty carved wooden box with gilded front panel.
