Based on the Germanic myth "Das Nibelungenlied" and the Nordic "Volsunga
Saga" which also inspired the four-opera cycle by Richard Wagner and
J.R.R. Tolkien's epic "The Lord of the Rings", this is the story of the young
blacksmith Siegfried, who, not knowing that he is heir to a conquered
kingdom, becomes popular with the Burgunds by slaying their bane, the
dragon Fafnir. When the reward seems to be a huge treasure, Siegfried
ignores the curse that lies on the hoard - which now seems to endanger his
love to beautiful Norse warrior queen Brunhild.
