i like the two minutes i can hear of it, for some reason the video starts at 20:01 and ends at 22:03 on my laptop :) 

Listen to the whole thing. It is the entire immolation scene from Götterdämmerung. Brunhilde chucks herself in the flames and Valhalla is destroyed, i.e. the death (twilight) of the gods.

This is another wonderful scene, Wotan's farewell and the 'Magic Fire Music'  - the end of Die Walküre effectively. Wotan is punishing Brünnhilde for attempting to save Siegmunde and spiriting away (the pregnant) Sieglinde; as punishment he envelops Brünnhilde, his daughter in fire - the magic fire music you hear (resolving in E-Major).

He is a good Wotan Terfel.
