Christof Loy brings intense insight to Wagner's story of illicit love, told through music of thrilling power. Tristan and Isolde have fallen in love - but Tristan has promised that Isolde will marry his uncle, King Marke. Isolde offers Tristan a deathly potion. Rather than bring death, it binds them still closer together. Richard Wagner described Tristan und Isolde as 'the most audacious and original work of my life'. The opera is a landmark in Western music. Wagner's musical innovations, daring use of harmony and depiction of extreme emotions have influenced generations of artists. The opera draws on the Celtic legend of Tristan and Iseult, and explores the theme of eternal love through sublime music.
