Awards and reviews
November 2013
The cast is reasonably strong, though Jukka Rasilainen is a lightweight Wotan...the strongest - Linda Watson's matronly but steely Brunnhilde, our own Andrew Shore's Alberich - arrive via Bayreuth.
October 2013
Unprissy, adventurous Wagnerians will want to hear and see, if only to argue.
Opera Now
Carrasco is quite unflinching in her direction. Sets are simple but mobile and inventive, the lighting (Peter van Praet) exemplary. The conductor, Roberto Paternostro, keeps things on the move, the tempi are swift and the two orchestras play their hearts out...Linda Watson is on her best form as Brünnhilde and Jukka Rasilainen is an intelligent Wotan
