Wagner's Love Rapture on the Big Screen: Tristan and Isolde live from the Met

A rare operatic event arrives in Landshut: The Metropolitan Opera broadcasts the new production of Richard Wagner's Tristan and Isolde directly to Kinopolis. Lise Davidsen and Michael Spyres lead the high-profile ensemble, conducted by Yannick Nézet‑Séguin and directed by Yuval Sharon. The performance is sung in German; the transmission will run with German subtitles. Duration: approx. 5 hours 10 minutes with two intermissions.

Sound Power and Light Poetry: The Live Atmosphere in the Hall

As the first notes of the prelude rise from the twilight, the live atmosphere unfolds that only the Met offers: an orchestral breath that reveals the finest colors in Dolby mixing, complemented by a stage whose lighting dramaturgy Sharon models with cinematic precision. The sound remains transparent, the orchestration shines, voices and orchestra merge in perfect synchronization.

Voices of the Present: The Star Ensemble of the Met

Lise Davidsen as Isolde and Michael Spyres as Tristan guarantee vocal endurance and richness of nuance – from the floating piano to the radiant forte. Ekaterina Gubanova (Brangäne), Tomasz Konieczny (Kurwenal), and Ryan Speedo Green (King Marke) complete the ensemble. Music director Yannick Nézet‑Séguin makes his debut at the podium with his first Tristan at the Met – a conducting that shapes great arcs and preserves breath for the famous final aria Mild und leise.

Directing with Vision: Yuval Sharon's New Staging

Sharon conceptualizes Wagner's love drama as time art: clear tableaux, precise timing of character direction, visual metaphors instead of stage dressing. The imagery relies on contrasts – intimacy in close-up, expansiveness in panoramic view – and translates the emotional architecture of the score into modern stage language.
