About

A string quartet and a narrator bring Wagner's Ring of the Nibelung down to kid size. The Praetorius Quartett plays themes from the opera cycle while Katja Jung tells the story of the dwarfs, giants, humans and gods fighting over a magic gold ring. It takes place in the Parkettgarderobe, a foyer inside Munich's opera house, not the main hall. A first taste of classical music and opera storytelling.
