Details

Wagner spoke of creating “moments of memory” through his leitmotifs. Tristan is most frequently presented to us through his memory of past events. He develops before our eyes and ears in full tragic dimension. Wagner’s accomplishment stands among the great portrayals found in the work of other 19th Century masters, including Hugo, Melville and Tolstoy. Wagner did it almost entirely with music. In this presentation Maestro Lilienstein will probe the sounds that reveal the poignant humanity of a sorrowing hero.
