Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde: “Isolde! Geliebte! —Tristan! Geliebter!” (Lise Davidsen, Michael Spyres

Lise Davidsen and Michael Spyres, as the title characters, sing an excerpt from Act II in an early stage rehearsal. Production: Yuval Sharon. Conductor: Yannick Nézet-Séguin. 2025–26 season. Videography by Neville Braithwaite. Wagner’s magnificent masterpiece is built on the idea of a great yearning that cannot be fulfilled in this plane of existence. This is first expressed in the prelude by a single chord and conveyed using chromatic modulations that build without resolving. Both of the principal roles are of an incredible stature, but Isolde’s is the last voice we hear: Her famous Liebestod concludes this exhilarating journey and offers the long-awaited resolution of the “Tristan chord” more than five hours after its initial sounding.
