Tristan und Isolde

Tristan und Isolde: Ben Heppner, Nina Stemme Tristan und Isolde. Ben Heppner, René Pape, Nina Stemme Tristan und Isolde. Nina Stemme, Ben Heppner
Richard Wagner

The most beautiful of all Wagner operas. Musical high erotic flair: two people, who still have a score to settle with one another, drink a love potion instead of poison. They are caught in flagrante, following which there is longing to the point of love-death. Careful: there's an addiction hazard here even for non-Wagnerians. "Drown – sink down!" Tristan in Munich's National Theatre, the site of its world première. The grand musical experience.
