...restraint made the opera's few moments of overt action all the more effective. As Hero Siegmund and Villain Hunding waged their battle at the end of Act II, a single, blinding white beam split the backdrop, silhouetting the struggle in all its throat-catching violence. When Wotan summoned the magic fire at the finale, the blackness was pierced by a single red spot, transforming Wotan's spear into a tongue of flame; in the inexplicit staging, these moments stood out in a relief that old-fashioned literalness could never achieve.
