Richard Wagner called love 'the most beautiful of all dreams'. Stephan Märki's vision of Tristan and Isolde takes us on a journey into the universe, to where Isolde perceives her lover Tristan resurrected, 'shining among the stars', as Wagner wrote.

The expressive team of singers is led by the heroic voice of tenor Bryan Register as Tristan and the Bayreuth-acclaimed soprano Catherine Foster as Isolde. Annika Schlicht makes her charismatic debut as Brangäne, while Andreas Jäpel powerfully portrays Tristan's friend Kurwenal. Dimitry Ivashchenko's profound bass characterizes the tragedy of King Marke.

Nearly four hour running time in German, with English and German sub-titles.
