Washington National Opera – Ring 2016
May 30, 2015 - 4:00 am
Our Group Ticket Organizer Joan Lam has worked tirelessly to put together a Group Ticket Offer to Cycle III of the Ring at the Washington National Opera in 2016.
Dates are: May 17, May 18, May 20 and May 22, 2016
Cast includes:
Wotan: Alan Held; Fricka: Jamie Barton; Fasolt: Julian Close ; Fafner: Soloman Howard; Siegmund: Christopher Ventris; Sieglinde: Meagan Miller; Brünnhilde: Nina Stemme; Alberich: Gordon Hawkins; Freia: Melody Moore; Mime: David Cangelosi, Loge: William Burden; Hunding: Ramond Aceto; Gerhilde and Third Norn: WSNC Grant awardee Marcy Stonikas
This is the same production which was seen in San Francisco in 2011 by director Francesca Zambello, with conductor Philippe Auguin, Music Director and Principle Conductor of the Washington National Opera.
Wagner Society Members in good standing are permitted to purchase one complete Ring Cycle in this offer. The advantage in obtaining Group Seating is that the orders for Groups are processed just after Patron/Subscribers. The WSNC Group offer gets you seats before the Box Office opens for sales to the general public.
