Richard Wagner: The Ring without Words
(compiled by Lorin Maazel)

Fresh from leading Opernhaus Zürich’s acclaimed Ring cycle, Gianandrea Noseda returns to D.C. to conduct the NSO in Wagner: The Ring without Words (compiled by Lorin Maazel).

The Rhine… Valhalla … the Ride of the Valkyries, Siegfrieds Funeral March, and Brünnhildes Immolation! All the drama of Wagner’s four operas is here, told through the pure power of the orchestra in one continuous unfolding. The Ring without Words brings together all of the highlights of Wagner’s masterpiece—from the first note of Das Rheingold to the last chord of Götterdämmerung.

Song of the Night: Noseda conducts Mahler’s Seventh Symphony

May 30 - Jun. 1, 2024

Join Gianandrea Noseda on a wild journey into twilight... Composed in a furious burst of inspiration, the Seventh is Mahler at his most mysterious. Indulgent, elusive, and delightfully raw, the Seventh is a problem child for some conductors, but not Noseda. From clanging cowbells and titanic brass to intimate midnight mandolin, Mahler’s glamorous, dusk-to-dawn universe is far beyond this world.
