Das Rheingold begins in the depths of the Rhine, where three lovely
maidens guard the sacred river's magical gold. The dwarf Alberich,
enraged by the Rhinemaidens' scorn, curses love, steals the precious
metal and forges a ring that gives its bearer unimaginable power. The
struggle for its possession drives the amazing Ring Cycle, in which
the stakes-control of the entire world-could not be higher.
