“It’s a challenge to embrace Wagner as a human being-not as hard to embrace him as an artist. “There is a sound of human emotions that Wagner captures that is so heartbreaking,” said Peyton, who immersed herself in the Ring, Tristan und Isolde, and Tannhäuser recordings while creating the works that appear in Wagner. The exhibition’s nearly 30 works extended beyond the gallery and onto other levels of the opera house, a first in Gallery Met history. The artist created new monotypes and drawings based on the characters from the Ring and loaned two existing portraits of Wagner’s patron, King Ludwig II of Bavaria. Once seated, audience members will be able to remove masks unless unvaccinated in which case masks are required throughout the event.On the occasion of the new production of Wagner’s Der Ring des NibelungenĮlizabeth Peyton’s Wagner was the second in the four-part series of exhibitions celebrating the Met’s new Ring cycle, coinciding with the premiere of Die Walküre. Masks will be required at entry in order to protect the youngest members of our community as well as those who are unable to be vaccinated. Wagner's larger-than-life masterpiece is brought to life by members of the Seattle Symphony Orchestra and conducted by former Music Director Ludovic Morlot. Plus we are excited to welcome back Washington native and Richard Tucker Award winner Angela Meade, our spectacular Tosca soprano Alexandra LoBianco, and lauded bass Raymond Aceto.
Two-time Grammy Award winner Eric Owens, "an American marvel," ( Chicago Sun-Times) makes his Seattle Opera debut along with the "dramatically fearless" ( The New York Times) tenor Brandon Jovanovich. In this concert version of the opera, audiences will be treated to an internationally-renowned cast of Wagnerian stars. This abridged version of Die Walküre will feature more than two hours of Wagner’s incredible music kicking off with the ever-popular and blood-stirring “The Ride of the Valkyries.” The music of Richard Wagner's iconic opera will fill the Seattle Center campus from the Fisher Pavilion Lawn to the International Fountain and includes jumbo screens for all to enjoy. In celebration of our community and our return to in-person performances we invite you to join us for a spectacular outdoor event: our Welcome Back Concert of Die Walküre.
