"Of the four works in the Ring cycle, Gotterdammerung is perhaps the grandest and most sweeping of all. Wagner began composing the musical drafts of Gotterdammerung in 1869. Five years later, the work was complete ? the capstone of an epic masterpiece that aroused near-religious fervor among its devotees. Available in U.S. only in this edition. Reprinted directly from rare 1877 first edition."
