We saw the Met 2019 Ring Cycle and the cast for the performance we saw was mostly the same as the one for this show. One notable exception was Michael Volle sang the role of Wotan in the performance we attended. Interesting, we saw Grimsley as Wotan in the very first Ring Cycle we attended, in 2009 in Seattle. I didn't write much about the performances then, but distinctly remember Grimsley as […]
