Intro
Tristan and Isolde fall deeply in love after drinking a magic potion. Unfortunately, Princess Isolde is promised to King Marke, Tristan’s lord and master. The lovers attempt to keep their devotion to one another secret; yet the attempt is destined to fail, and disaster is inevitable when their love is discovered. Marco Arturo Marelli’s visually stunning production provides an ideal frame, both in space and in colour, for the mystery of this love affair so beautifully told in Richard Wagner’s opera. First performed in 1865, the action is almost entirely driven by the music.
Premiere 17. May 1995
