Watson:Shore:Teatro Col�n - The Col�n Ring Documentary

Is it really possible to stage Wagner's Ring on a single day? The composer's great-granddaughter, Katharina Wagner, who now runs the Bayreuth Festival, was keen to stage Cord Garben's abridged version of the cycle at the Teatro Col�n in Buenos Aires, but in the event things turned out rather differently. When she and her team arrived at the Col�n, they found that the rehearsal conditions were not what they were expecting, and so she decided that the task should be entrusted to a different director. Valentina Carrasco took over at short notice and together with the singers and the set and costume designers she staged the Ring in a seven-hour version never previously seen and all on a single day!The documentary provides a thrilling and visually memorable account of the long journey taken by this version from its inception to the first night.
