It was a great Sigfried! Besides the staging, that I like very much, we had absolutely wonderful performances from Gerhard Siegel (I think it is impossible to play a better Mime), Hans Peter König, Bryn Terfel and Eric Owens. The revelation for me was Jay Hunter Morris (I did not know him) that, despite the points you mention (and I agree with you). He was able to play a very good Sigfried.
.... ich hab's leider verpasst. :( hab "nur" die Walküre gesehen und war absolut begeistert - auch wenn die "Aufführung" bis nach Mitternacht gedauert hat, weil es in New York Probleme mit der Übertragung gab.
