Inhaltsangabe
Here is opera's greatest love story, set to music of incomparable beauty. First performed in Munich in 1865, Tristan und Isolde changed the course of musical history and opened the door to 20th-century innovation. The doomed romance between the Irish princess Isolde and the Cornish knight Tristan took on new drama and immediacy with Wagner's blending of tonality, blurring of keys, and innovative use of repetitive leitmotifs, shattering the fundamentals of conventional harmony and ushering in a new era of thought in musical development and theory. This edition is complete, with newly added lists of characters, credits, and contents — all in the original German with optional English singing text by H. & F. Corder.
