Plácido Domingo Sings Wagner

Having risen to fame in Italian opera, Plácido Domingo (then at the height of his artistic powers) later took up the Wagnerian repertoire with undeniable success. He played both Tristan and Siegfried on stage in around 200 performances each!  This collection includes his noted performance as Tristan in the praised Antonio Pappano version (featuring Nina Stemme), love duets from Siegfried and Tristan with Deborah Voigt, major scenes from the Ring conducted by Pappano with Natalie Dessay and Violeta Urmana… It also includes, for the first time in digital, a live recording of the first act of Die Walküre, with Daniel Barenboim at the baton!
