composed by Richard Wagner

This is it -- the pressing and the packaging you've been waiting for in a Clemens Krauss Ring.

Taped at the 1953 Bayreuth Festival, the Krauss Ring has fabulous singing from some of the ...

composed by Richard Wagner

The first release of the first stereo recording of the work, the historical importance of this set of Wagner's Siegfried is undeniable. Recorded by Decca at the 1955 Bayreuth Festival, this performance directed by Joseph Keilberth was to have been issued as part of the first complete Ring cycle. But persuaded that only a studio recording could do ...

composed by Richard Wagner

A perfectly acceptable performance, Joseph Keilberth's Das Rheingold at the 1955 Bayreuth Festival would no doubt have satisfied most listeners. But although the performance was taped in stereo by Decca, the recording remained unreleased until 2006 when Testament finally issued it, and by that time finer performances, including Decca's own ...

With this Götterdämmerung, English historical label Testamentconcluded its releases of the long un-issued first stereo recording of Wagner's Der Ring des Nibelungen from the 1955 Bayreuth Festival performance.

composed by Richard Wagner

Although the big story in Wagner reissues in 2006 was the first commercial release of the 1953 Joseph Keilberth/Bayreuth Ring, the first stereo Ring, the real story is the first great-sounding release of the 1953 Clemens Krauss/Bayreuth Ring, the first and only Ring by one of the greatest of Wagner conductors.
