Superb finishing number for a concert. (From Das Rheingold)

The Valkyrie, the second opera of Wagner’s Ring cycle, ends with the Gods crossing the rainbow bridge and entering into Valhalla, another name for Odin’s Hall, the home for the slain in battle. Wagner’s mish-mash of ancient Norse and Germanic legend need not worry the listener too much unless he or she wants to take in the whole Wagner experience. Needless to say, in this excerpt there is more than enough to enjoy of the majesty and variety of Wagner’s music.
