Thank you for an incredible night 🎊

We’re still taking it all in.

To everyone who came to Das Rheingold — thank you for being there, for listening so closely, and for sharing this experience with us.

So much heart went into this production — from our cast and creative team to every person working behind the scenes. It truly meant a lot to feel that connection in the room.

Seeing a full house, feeling the energy, and knowing this story landed with you… that’s why we do it.

We’re really grateful.

More to come.

Shaumet Music Chamber Orchestra
Wagner: Das Rheingold

Behind the epic world of gods, giants, and the cursed ring lies a force that shapes everything you hear—the orchestra.

In Das Rheingold, Wagner doesn’t simply write accompaniment. He builds an entire universe through sound—from the stillness of the Rhine to the monumental ascent into Valhalla. Every motif, every texture, every instrumental colour carries the drama forward.

Our Shaumet Music Chamber Orchestra brings this vast score into a refined chamber setting—where nothing is hidden, and every musician becomes part of the storytelling.

🎻 A carefully assembled ensemble of outstanding performers across strings, woodwinds, brass, and continuo
🎼 Led by conductor Toby Wong, shaping a sound world that is both intimate and powerful

This is Wagner at close range—
raw, detailed, and intensely alive.

✨ Experience the orchestra not as background, but as the engine of the drama.

Limited seats remaining.

In this extended Video, Simon Lobelson （and his cat） dives into his interpretation of Alberich.

Not just a villain — but a character shaped by rejection, ambition, and power.
A role that demands both vocal force and psychological depth.

Watch the full conversation for a closer look into the making of Alberich.

In Das Rheingold, power first takes form in desire, in cunning, and in control.

Alberich — renouncing love — forges the Ring, and with it, a power born of loss.
Wotan — bound by law, yet driven by will — seeks to command what cannot be possessed without consequence.
Loge — observer, instigator — moves between worlds, illuminating and unsettling in equal measure.

Three forces in motion:
the will to seize,
the will to rule,
and the mind that sets both into play.

The world of the gods begins to shift.

Alberich — Dr. Simon Lobelson
Wotan — Shane Lowrencev

In Das Rheingold, the foundations of power are laid quietly —
in promise, in exchange, in knowledge, and in force.

Freia — the bearer of youth — becomes what must be surrendered.
Fricka — guardian of law — insists on what must be honoured.
Erda — voice of the earth — reveals what cannot be escaped.
Donner — wielder of the storm — restores what appears to be order.

A beginning already shadowed by consequence,
a world set in motion, its fracture inherent.

⸻

Cast

Fricka — Livia Brash
Freia — Aleta Shang
Donner — Bernard Leong-Lokman
Erda — Jill Sullivan
