Simon Rattle conducts Wagner’s “Götterdämmerung” at the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence
Nothing less than the end of the world can be experienced in Wagner’s Götterdämmerung – although there are also subtly nuanced emotions in intimate scenes. Simon Rattle and the Berliner Philharmoniker presented this monumental work here with outstanding singers at the Festival d’Aix-en-Provence: “One was overwhelmed by a feast of sound that saturated every pore” (Le Figaro).
