Glyndebourne's celebrated production of NikoIaus Lehnhoff's Tristan Und lsoIde is a supremely inteIIigent achievement; graveIy beautifuI, haunting and meditative, it is deeply reflective rather than visceraI, fortified by Roland Aeschlimann's stunningIy effective set, a womb like space through which the protagonists move Iike gods. Conductor Jiri Belohlavek mirrors Lehnhoff's approach in his sophisticated reading of the score's depths, with every shift in texture carefuIIy Iaid bare by an inspired London PhiIharmonic Orchestra. Nina Stemme's lsoIde and Robert GambilI's Tristan - both gloriously lyrical - are matched by superb performances from Rene Pape as the betrayed and vulnerable King Marke, Katarina Karneus as a sharp Barangane and Bo Skovhus as KurwenaI, deepIy touching in his helpless devotion to Tristan. This High Definition recording of a production of uncommon intimacy reveals the opera's music and drama in a new Iight. |
