The 'Ring' begins -- Pittsburgh Festival Opera opens Wagner's cycle with 'Rhinegold'

Pittsburgh Post-Gazette: Pittsburgh Festival Opera comes to life every summer with repertory not likely to be tackled by mainstream-oriented Pittsburgh Opera. This city’s smaller company’s ongoing projects include lesser known works by Richard Strauss – this season the Pennsylvania premiere of “Arabella” (July 20 and 22) – and the revival of its pared-down version of “The Ring of the Nibelung,” Wagner’s monumental four-opera parable depicting the rise and fall of civilization as we know it.
