Ruhr Triennale: Tristan und Isolde (New Production) August - Sept 2011

Willy Decker

Willy Decker's last year as Director sees his new production of Tristan und Isolde. Given, as you no doubt are already aware, his three years have seen the festival concentrate on the theme of  Urmomente (Primal moments)  Tristan would seem the perfect opera  to complete such a theme.
