Wagner's Der Ring Des Nibelungen -  Decca Box Set. In 1970 Decca UK released this incredible LP boxed set of the complete edition of Richard Wagner's four part opera; 'Der Ring des Nibelungen'. Also known as 'The Ring Cycle' the box set features the four operas 'Das Rheingold', 'Die Walkure', 'Siegfried' and 'Gotterdammerung'. There is also a unique three record introduction to 'The Ring' set narrated by Deryck Cooke featuring excerpts from the four operas.  Each opera is in its own separate wooden ended partition with full size libretto booklets containing synopsis & full transcription for the operas.  The performances (respectfully recorded in 1958, 1966, 1963 and 1965) are THE classic versions conducted by Georg Solti and performed by the Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra.  The whole ensemble is enclosed in a very weighty carved wooden box with gilded front panel.  Details of Records: DAS RHIENGOLD  * Recording year: 1958  * Record number: ZAL 4260-5  * Number of LP’s: THREE  * Orchestra: Vienna Philharmonic Orchestra & Vienna State Opera Chorus, conducted by (Sir) Georg Solti.  * Cast: Jean Madeira, Set Svanholm, George London, Kirsten Flagstad.

NEAR MINT

THE OCCASIONAL LIGHT TIC OR POP SHOULD BE EXPECTED AS IS THE CASE WITH ALL  VINYL NEW OR OLD AND IS MOST OFTEN CAUSED BY STATIC ELECTRICITY. THERE MAY BE SOME SPINDLE MARKS ALSO.

SOME MAY LOOK UNPLAYED BUT EVEN THESE CAN HAVE UNWANTED BACKGROUND NOISE.  ALAS THIS IS THE   NATURE OF VINYL.
