DESCRIPTION:May 30 - Jun 7\, 2026\nIn 2013\, Atlanta Opera was on the ropes
 —so much so that it was going to have to collapse the two positions of a
 rtistic and general director. A very eager stage director named Tomer Zvul
 un raised his hand. “Don’t hire him\,” said a high-powered consultan
 t. “He’s not ready.” But the search committee liked Zvulun\, gave hi
 m the job(s)\, and subsequently sent him to Harvard for an MBA. Artistical
 ly\, Zvulun’s big dream back then was to shepherd Atlanta to the top tie
 r of American opera companies—and the benchmark for that was going to be
  a world-class production of Wagner’s Der Ring des Nibelungen. Step by s
 tep\, he has made his dream come true. The first three segments of the Zvu
 lun Ring have had a Constructivist graphic-novel look that let the drama u
 nfold without distractions. This spring\, we reach the grand finale Götte
 rdämmerung\, in which the world catches fire and is reborn. Following a u
 nique\, now well-established Atlanta tradition\, the previous installments
 —Das Rheingold\, Die Walküre\, and Siegfried—have not simply been cap
 tured live on video\; they have been transformed into real movies by combi
 ning the raw shoots from the stage with lots of creative post-production (
 select the “Film Studio” tab on the company Web site). Götterdämmeru
 ng streams live\, sans frills\, on June 5\, with the usual improvements to
  follow. Stefan Vinke and Lise Lindstrom return as Siegfried and Brünnhil
 de\, lovers tragically estranged by dark forces yet perhaps reunited on so
 me other plane. Roberto Kalb conducts.
