    Mercy, this is magnificent, over and over again, such love as can only be imagined in this ethereal place where bellows forward the whole of some mournful joy, vowing to live forever, and never die; together, vowing their love to be greater than life, and death. I believe that Wagner captured the ecstatic pleasure that brings us all of us life, while never failing to add it's ever burden. He had quite a sense. Some of the poetry you could never give enough stars to describe their grade.

    Die Kostüme in diesem Akt sind genial. Die Personenregie von Müller ebenso. Die Sehnsucht am Leben zu erhalten ist wichtiger, als sie zu befriedigen. Tristan hat recht, wenn er diesen Trank im Grunde verflucht. Die
    Stimmen von Meier und Jerusalem passen hervorragend zusammen. Eine außergewöhnliche Inszenierung.

  • @SerafinDrake
    @SerafinDrake 4 года назад +23

    Those of you who are calling the production lacking in courage, lacking in passion, lacking in artistry, or otherwise basically lacking in general (and yes, that includes the praise you grudgingly give to Jerusalem, Meier, and Barenboim) might want to take into consideration that the romantic love that Tristan and Isolde unwillingly feel for each other as a result of having drunk a magic potion is so grand and epic that it is almost impossible to stage, even before Wagner wrote a libretto that turned the volume on that eros up to eleven (as the saying goes). A minimalistic set allows more to go on in the theatre of the mind.
    Keep in mind the demands of the musical performance itself, as well - if you want not only a lavish set and eye-popping medieval court garb, but also Tristan and Isolde getting physical with each other throughout their duet of consummation, you basically want Jerusalem and Meier to shatter each other's eardrums when they sing fortissimo, which happens often enough, because this is, after all, Wagner. They'll be doing this all around long sung passages that declare and analyze emotion, which personally I can't see happening in the middle of getting busy, but even suspending my disbelief a little, to expect our lovers to sing AND declare love over and over again AND physically engage each other in a way that suggests their love being consummated (which it is, but not in any way an audience is expected to see) is a little bit much. Again, think "theatre of the mind." We're supposed to be using our imaginations here.
    I think the blocking, the set design, the theatrical direction, etc are quite bold, for what they attempt.
    Also bold: who is conducting? Daniel Barenboim. Jewish. Conducting the work of Richard Wagner, a composer who was notoriously antisemitic. That kind of musical reclamation is not only bold, it's freaking revolutionary.

      Sublime music, sung well, to a garbage production, is still listenable, but the production is still garbage. If the staging detracts from the music, and this one goes overboard in doing so, then it is unworthy of the composer's vision.

Правда, эти солисты 1995 года поют с большей экспрессией, и сказывается крепкая рука крупнейшего музыканта нашего времени, пианиста и дирижёра Daniel Barenboim!!!

    What is everyone's problem with the production? I get not everyone likes Minimalism (I like anything meaningful and well made), but the lighting/colour scheme alone is beautiful and really helps sell the dark life Schopenhauer originally describes by which we are chained by desire. Wagner maybe didn't ask for this in his original production but before roasting it because of personal taste, think about the philosophical origin of this entire work and its own nature. The atmosphere created in this production is unique and unparalleled in my opinion. When I read the very works that inspired Wagner to write this masterpiece, this is exactly what I personally envisioned.

      Not only are Wagner's stage directions ignored but the actual libretto is being ignored too. Very distracting.

      To me, opera is about the aesthetically pleasing - both in sound and vision. I want to see something beautiful and understandable, in this case a Cornish garden of a palace, with stone walls, banks of flowers, an elevated place for Brangane's warning, a dark blue summer sky full of stars. I want to see beautifully colored costumes of that time and place. I want to be transported to a place like that, which the composer wanted us to share with him. Not to an ugly industrial warehouse that manufactures what appears to be butane gas tanks.

Die Personenführung und die Bühnenszene ähneln einer konzertanten Aufführung und machen eine Regie entbehrlich.

How do they relate to what's going on in the very passionate conversation between Tristan and Isolde? And so many other questions in my mind that I couldn't stop thinking/obsessing about them.
    I don't think that should be the case -- the stars should always be front and center, and the set merely a background that can be ignored or admired as the case may be.

    acto 1
    Isolda y su sirvienta Brangania se encuentran en el barco de Tristán, de camino a las tierras del Rey Marke en Cornualles, donde Isolda va a casarse con el Rey. La ópera comienza con la voz de un joven marinero cantando una canción sobre una salvaje doncella irlandesa, lo que Isolda interpreta como una burla hacia ella. En un arrebato de furia, Isolda desea que se levanten las olas y hundan el barco, matando a todos los tripulantes. Su ira va especialmente dirigida a Tristán, el caballero que la lleva hasta Marke. Isolda envía a Brangania a que llame a Tristán a su presencia, pero él rechaza la petición diciendo que su lugar está en el timón. El subalterno de Tristán, Kurwenal, responde más bruscamente y contesta que Isolda no está en posición de dar órdenes a Tristán, ya que su anterior prometido, Morold, fue asesinado por Tristán.
    Brangania vuelve con Isolda para contarle lo ocurrido, e Isolda le cuenta cómo, tras la muerte de Morold, llevaron ante ella a un extranjero llamado Tantris que encontraron mortalmente herido a bordo de un bote y que ella lo había sanado usando sus poderes curativos. Entonces descubrió que Tantris era en realidad Tristán, quien mató a Morold, e intentó matarlo con una espada cuando estaba recostado indefenso ante ella. En ese momento Tristán no miró la espada que iba a acabar con su vida, sino directamente a los ojos de Isolda, lo que dejó a ésta sin capacidad para matar al caballero. Una vez restablecido, se permitió huir a Tristán, pero habría de volver para llevarse a Isolda para que se casara con su tío, el Rey Marke. Isolda, furiosa por la traición de Tristán, insiste en que tiene una bebida que redimirá de sus fechorías, y Brangania mira sorprendida que se refiere a un veneno letal.
    En este momento Kurwenal aparece en la habitación de las mujeres diciendo que Tristán ha accedido a ver a Isolda. Cuando llega, Isolda le cuenta que sabía que él era Tantris y le perdonó la vida. Tristán acepta beber la poción, preparada por Brangania, aún sabiendo que probablemente acabe con su vida. Cuando Tristán bebe, Isolda le quita de las manos la poción y termina de bebérsela ella misma. Entonces, pensando cada cual que su vida está a punto de terminar, se declaran su amor incondicional. En ese momento, Kurwenal anuncia la inminente llegada a bordo del Rey Marke, mientras Brangania comprueba horrorizada cómo la poción que preparó no era veneno, sino una poción amorosa. En la cubierta los marineros saludan al Rey Marke.
    Acto II O sink hernieder[editar]
    Una partida de caza nocturna deja solas en el castillo del Rey Marke a Isolda y Brangania, quienes permanecen al lado de un brasero en llamas. Isolda cree varias veces que los cuernos de caza están suficientemente lejos como para permitirle apagar las llamas, señal que espera Tristán para acudir junto a ella. Brangania avisa a Isolda de que uno de los caballeros del Rey Marke, Melot, ha estado observando atentamente las miradas que se cruza con Tristán y sospecha del gran amor que se tienen. Isolda, sin embargo, considera a Melot como el amigo más fiel de Tristán y en un rapto de deseo apaga las llamas. Brangania se retira mientras Tristán llega junto a Isolda.
    Los amantes, por fin solos y libres de las ataduras de la vida cortés, se declaran su mutua pasión. Tristán desprecia la realidad del día, ya que es falsa, irreal y los mantiene separados. Es únicamente durante la noche cuando ellos pueden estar verdaderamente juntos, y sólo durante la larga noche de la muerte podrán estar eternamente unidos. Brangania les avisa en repetidas ocasiones durante su encuentro de que la noche se está acabando, pero ellos la ignoran. Finalmente se hace de día y Melot lleva a Marke y sus hombres para encontrar a Tristán e Isolda uno en los brazos del otro. Esta imagen rompe el corazón de Marke, ya que no sólo ha sido traicionado por su sobrino Tristán, sino que el Rey se ha enamorado también de Isolda.
    Tristán pregunta a Isolda si ella está dispuesta a seguirle a la realidad de la noche y ella le contesta afirmativamente. Melot y Tristán luchan y en el momento decisivo, Tristán es herido de muerte por Melot.
    Acto III Liebestod[editar]
    Kurwenal ha llevado a Tristán a Kareol, su castillo en Bretaña. Un pastor toca una melodía triste y pregunta si Tristán está ya despierto. Kurwenal le contesta que sólo la llegada de Isolda podría salvar a Tristán. El pastor dice que estará atento y tocará una melodía alegre si ve llegar algún barco. Tristán se despierta y advierte que está otra vez en la falsa realidad del día, una vez más comido por un deseo inalcanzable, hasta que Kurwenal le cuenta que Isolda está de camino. Tristán se emociona y pregunta en repetidas ocasiones si hay algún barco a la vista, pero suena la melodía triste del pastor. Tristán recuerda que es la misma melodía que oyó cuando su padre y su madre murieron. Cuando oye al pastor tocar una melodía alegre, Tristán, en un rapto de deseo, arranca los vendajes de sus heridas. Cuando Isolda llega a su lado, Tristán muere con su nombre en los labios.
    Isolda se derrumba a su lado cuando se anuncia la llegada de otra embarcación. Kurwenal ve a Melot, Marke y Brangania llegar y se lanza a luchar para vengar la muerte de Tristán, matando a Melot, pero muriendo él mismo. Marke y Brangania finalmente alcanzan el lugar donde se encuentran Isolda y el cadáver de Tristán. Marke, llorando sobre el cuerpo de su más sincero amigo, explica que Brangania le había contado lo ocurrido con la poción de amor y que había venido no para separar a los amantes, sino para unirlos.
    Isolda parece recobrarse pero, al describir su visión de Tristán, se transfigura y muere en uno de los pasajes más bellos de la literatura operística (se lo llama la «muerte de amor» o Liebestod) y también más difíciles porque la soprano debe llegar con suficiente energía después de cuatro horas de representación.

      if you're talking about set&costume design i really don't agree. really enjoying the minimal, pared-down, postmodern look of it, as well as the use of these harnesses as design device.
