Background

In celebration of Die Walküre coming to the Main Stage, baritone Christopher Maltman leads this opera masterclass alongside members of the Jette Parker Artists Programme.

Love and death, gods and mortals, heroes and villains: it’s all here, in the thunderous second chapter of the Ring cycle. Following the glittering triumph of Das Rheingold in 2023, Barrie Kosky and Antonio Pappano plunge back into Wagner’s mythic universe. Christopher Maltman’s Wotan returns alongside an international cast including Elisabet Strid as Brünnhilde, Natalya Romaniw as Sieglinde and Stanislas de Barbeyrac as Siegmund.

This event will be filmed and livestreamed to The Royal Ballet and Opera YouTube.

While previously advertised with Lise Davidsen, she has withdrawn from leading this masterclass as well as all scheduled performances, due to her pregnancy. The Royal Opera extends their very best wishes to Lise and look forward to welcoming her back to Covent Garden in the future.
