Yes, there are a lot of cuts to different cameras, but they are usually intelligently done. In the extended scenes I've watched in Walkure and Gotterdammerung, I didn't really notice it that much.<BR/><BR/>So, I would not hesitateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483678492345755723.post-10216531710180304962008-07-28T16:16:00.000+02:002008-07-28T16:16:00.000+02:00Well, I thought of the Geneva Ring several times w...Well, I thought of the Geneva Ring several times when watching this production.

Anyway, is this filming as horrible as [Tristan und Isolde] of Bel Air (Production of Geneva Opera), camera by Andy Sommer? Even though that was really awsome casting, orchestra and production, I was SO irritated by distracting camera work by Andy Sommers. If this ring is that bad, buying this DVD set is out of question.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5483678492345755723.post-81955820205220355212008-07-12T02:45:00.000+02:002008-07-12T02:45:00.000+02:00Thank you.
