Tristan und Isolde: Deutsche Oper Berlin
About the Event
The Deutsche Oper Berlin presents Wagner's 'Tristan und Isolde' in Graham Vick's critically acclaimed production.
Betrayal, lost honor, guilt and atonement, passionate, transcendental love, a yearning for death and forgetting… the story of Tristan and Isolde, developed over centuries from a Celtic folk tale into a mythical saga, has fascinated writers, poets and musicians alike.
In German with German and English surtitles
