Klaus Schulze is a visionary. A dreamer. And he is well known for making his dreams come true. For a long time now he has wanted to collaborate with extremely gifted vocalist Lisa Gerrard. Finally he has been able to realise this dream.

Gerrard, born in Melbourne, Australia was once a member of the unique duo DEAD CAN DANCE and has since contributed to a host of movie scores such as Gladiator, Ali and Whale Rider. She owns one of the most remarkable and expressive voices of modern times. "I have wanted to work with Lisa since the days of Dead Can Dance in the 80s, but I never had an opportunity for such a collaboration", Schulze says. Till now.

The first fruit of this pairing was the double album "Farscape". Never before have you experienced Schulze – whose oeuvre is full of emotionally gripping music – in a more emotional framework. Then, on 18th July 2008, Klaus Schulze and Lisa Gerrard played at the "Night of the Prog III" Festival - an extraordinary concert on the "Loreley" Open Air Stage in St. Goarshausen, Germany. The results were magical. Lisa refined the tracks "Loreley" and "Wellgunde" with her unique voice. The concert was filmed to become Klaus Schulze's first DVD release. Last August Schulze and his sound engineer Tom Dams worked at Peter Gabriel's Real World Studios to fix the 5.1 Mix. This post production process is part of the documentary included on the bonus disc. Klaus also did an exclusive interview with Steve Wilson from Porcupine Tree, which will be part of the bonus material for the DVD.

Schulze himself is an institution, a living legend – as a member of iconic electronic pop acts such as Tangerine Dream and Ash Ra Tempel, and in his own right, with a plethora of solo albums. He has provided remixes for a variety of interesting bands and he has collaborated with many thrilling and innovative artists. The Moog specialist and self-confessed Wagner fan has been a flickering will-o-the-wisp within the music scene for nearly four decades!

The DVD version of "Rheingold" contains the entire concert at "Loreley" (but without the track "Nibelungen", available as a bonus track on the CD version only) on DVD1 (109 minutes) and a special documentary on DVD2 (118 minutes) plus a 6 page booklet.
