Der Ring Des Nibelungen - Steinberg Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra.

Steinberg's recording of the Brahms Symphony No. 2 was nominated for a Grammy for Classical Album of the Year in 1962. Steinberg said of these sessions, "At first I opposed this location, because I can't hear the orchestra there, the ceiling is so high. I suppose it must be so high to make room for the Lincoln inscription. November 1–4, 1961 Richard Wagner: Selections from Der Ring des Nibelungen. November 1–4, 1961 Ludwig van Beethoven: Symphony No. 7. April 30-May 2, 1962 Johannes Brahms: Symphony No. 3, Tragic Overture.

Der Ring des Nibelungen discography. The four operas of Richard Wagner's cycle Der Ring des Nibelungen together take about 15 hours, which makes for several records, tapes, or CDs, and a lot of studio time. For this reason, many full Ring recordings are the result of "unofficial" recording of live performances, particularly from the Bayreuth Festival where new productions are often broadcast by German radio.

Sebastian Weigle’s selections from Richard Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen include some of the most popular music from Das Rheingold, Die Walküre, Siegfried, and Götterdämmerung. However, the album’s title, Orchestermusik, is misleading because these are not exclusively orchestral excerpts. These recordings are extracts from the Frankfurt Opera’s performances of the Ring operas under Weigle, and this sampler is presented as an introduction to the complete cycle on Oehms Classics, recorded live between 2010 and 2012. However, listeners who are looking for purely orchestral music, along the lines of the Wagner Without Words album by George Szell, Lorin Maazel's "The Ring Without Words," or Henk de Vlieger's "The Ring: An Orchestral Adventure," should consider those as worthwhile alternatives.

Wagner: Der Ring des Nibelungen highlights. I own Solti 4- LP "higlights" from his Ring cycle Wagner Der Ring Des Nibelungen Highlights From the Complete Recording, but as much I value Solti's conducting, and John Culshaw's historic production of the cycle, the London LP transfers seriously under-mined the work of all concerned. Although not as bad as RCA "Dynagroove" fiasco, the LPs still did not elminate but some noticeable break-up and distortion at the top, and the pressings were not flattering to the voices.
