La Cieca (center, in chair) has listened carefully to the Bühnenweihfestspielkrieg commentary of the cher public (also pictured) and, though practically overwhelmed by the brilliance of all of you, really, has managed to settle on a single winner, who, in addition to the hand of Eva Pogner, will receive the complete DVD set of Der Ring des Nibelungen.

Our grand prize winner is lorenzo.venezia. La Cieca asks lorenzo to contact her at [email protected] with a shipping address so she may send on the DVD set.

Three runners-up  wrote so movingly and well that La Cieca has decided each will receive as parting gift a disc of highlights from the Valencia production. They are Unfaithful Zerbinetta, Buster and hochstelust, adept critics all. Will each of you as well please contact La Cieca with a shipping address?

Thanks to all who participated, and La Cieca is always interested in hearing your ideas for competitions here at parterre.com!
