Synopsis
Met audiences were fascinated by Mariusz TreliĆskiâs gripping, visionary production of Wagnerâs epic opera. In the daunting title roles of the doomed lovers, Nina Stemme and Stuart Skelton are passionate, overwhelming, and heartbreaking as they battle every obstacle that separates them from their true destiny. RenĂ© Pape is King Marke, betrayed not only by Isolde but by Tristan, the man he most trusts and loves like a son. With Ekaterina Gubanova as Isoldeâs confidante BrangĂ€ne and Evgeny Nikitin as Kurwenal, Tristanâs loyal lieutenant. Simon Rattle conducts a surging, shimmering account of Wagnerâs monumental score.
