The Ring Cycle by Richard Wagner consists of four parts: Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, Siegfried and Götterdämmerung. All four operas will be seen in a new production by Opera Australia at the Queensland Performing Arts Center in Brisbane from December 1st to December 21st. Back then, Wagner not only wrote the text, but also composed the music and gave detailed scenic instructions. Nevertheless, this "Gesamtkunstwerk" still leaves a lot of room for interpretation. The current production is a world first because the stage design consists entirely of digital projections. Behind it is the founder and creative director of the design studio flora&faunavisions in Berlin, Leigh Sachwitz.
