Tristan und Isolde in the acclaimed production by Heiner Muller from the Bayreuth festival from 1995, conducted by Daniel Barenboim with fire and sensitivity.

Siegfried Jerusalem as Tristan and Waltraud Meier as Isolde have consistently drawn enthusiastic acclaim for their performance, not only in the year of the premiere, but in subsequent years as well. Heiner Muller and stage designer Erich Wonder have compressed the monumental story into a clear and fascinating geometry of love. Wonder created highly evocative spaces through projections of colours and forms which shift according to the mood.

One widely noted example of Muller?s elegant, restrained interpretation, in which small gestures replace sweeping displays of passion, is the famous love duet, in which Tristan and Isolde, instead of embracing rapturously, stand back to back and side by side and touch, ever so lightly, only the tips of their fingers.

"As for the long awaited debuts of Meier and Jerusalem, the audience was ecstatic, so much so that Jerusalem excitedly hugged and kissed his partner several times during the curtain calls." - Herald Tribune.

"Waltraud Meier is the most beautiful and erotic Isolde in post war Bayreuth history." - Leipziger Volkszeitung.
