Review of The Ring and I: The Passion, The Myth, The Mania

The idea of doing an hour-long radio piece on The Ring automatically gets high marks. This piece will be loved by those who already know the music, and I suspect it will pique the interest of those who listen to classical music but not very much Wagner. This is definitely a piece you want to hear on the radio just before the Ring cycle comes to town.
