Tristan und Isolde: Gran Teatre del Liceu

About the Event

Be party to a musical and theatrical revolution. Alex Ollé of La Fura dels Baus brings Wagner's radical epic to the stage, with Iréne Theorin and Stefan Vinke, Wagnerians of international repute, as the eponymous lovers. Sarah Connolly and the veteran Albert Dohmen round out an unmissable cast.

Pairing the work's inherent musical ambiguity and nihilistic philosophy with a focus on the symbolic language of Wagner's self‐penned libretto, Ollé and his team create an intriguing new realisation of the German's conception of 'a comprehensive work of art'.

Practical Information

Please note: In some areas of the Gran Teatre del Liceu it is possible to be seated with a partially obstructed view of the stage. The Gran Teatre del Liceu recommends Category 2 for the finest and completely unobstructed view of the performance. The stage is not visible from seats starting in row 2 of Category 8. A monitor is provided for following the performance in this section. Only available for operas.
