This was easily one of the most frustrating DVDs I have come across. And of course it was not cheap either. The conducting was excellent, and the singers ranged from good (Charbonnet) to the so-so (Forbis). From an audio perspective it was a fairly representative of what we hear broadcast from major opera houses. Unfortunately we are not talking about CDs, and all I can say is that the artists' painstaking efforts were sabotaged by the bizarre video direction (and that's putting it kindly). ... Read More

Okay. I think that what needs to be looked at here are the intentions of this opera, particularly how is was filmed. I might be wrong but if you're a 19 year old goth who spends most of his time watching metal video's, what better way is there to inspire such a heart-bludgeoning, death-loving person than with this very production, including its filming?
From the point of someone who has seen/heard a thousand Tristan's, yes, the filming here is bad. But that does not mean it does not ... Read More

Tristan und Isolde is really one of the great operas .I love this music , and sometimes I think that this is the best thing Wagner wrote. This DVD musically is very good. I never heard before the majority of the singers. That was really a big surprise. Jeanne - Michele Charbonnet is one of the best Isoldes I have heard. Comparable with Altmayer and Johanna Meier .She hasn't the iron in the voice as Nilsson had and because of this her Isolde is very human and sensitive. Clifton Forbis is one ... Read More

I can't say how much I disagree with the two previous American 'critics' who enjoy pooh-poohing this very fine DVD production. Probably they like the others better. Do they prefer the Bayerishe Staatsoper's effort with the cocktails in the first act and the couch-flipping Tristan in the 2nd act or perhaps the literally unwatchable Met production ? The famous Barenboim from Bayreuth videotape dating from 80'-s is, of course, discontinued but that was was my favorite up to now.This new one with its ... Read More

I agree with almost everything the other SF reviewer said but I am giving the singers far more credit in the rating. The production seem interesting from what you could tell, in particular Act 3 (I wonder if all that water was room temperature ). BUT, I can't think of enough 4 letter words to describe how the video director absolutely ruined the experience. Act 1 was the worst and Act 2 was only slightly better. Act 3 was calm for a while at least. What was someone thinking when they allowed ... Read More
