Of all operas, perhaps the one that least needs<br />

ingenious extramusical assistance is »Tristan«,<br />

this aurally erotic work that speaks so vividly to the<br />

listener’s inner eye. Wagner’s score is simply more<br />

illustrative and sensuously pictorial than any series<br />

of stage pictures could be. Golo Berg’s sensuous<br />

conducting of the Dessau Philharmonic continually<br />

presses that truth home. He leads the orchestra in a<br />

lithe and propulsive performance that shows unusual<br />

consideration for the wonderful voices of the singers.<br />

»The cheering was loud and prolonged … This Dessau<br />

Tristan is a musical gem and makes for a superb<br />

evening.« (MDR)<br />

Nikolaus Lehnoff’s »Tannhäuser« production, recorded<br />

at Baden-Baden, is based on Wagner’s Paris<br />

version with an extended Venusberg and a ballet very<br />

surprisingly choreographed. The minimalist staging<br />

and Raimund Bauer’s ingenious sets make this<br />

»Tannhäuser« an opera for our time. The cast including<br />

Camilla Nylund, Waltraud Meier, Robert Gambill<br />

Stephen Milling and Roman Trekel is hard to match<br />

these days. Press quotes: »Baden-Baden successfully<br />

attacks Bayreuth with Tannhäuser … A noble feast of<br />

voices … There is no crisis of Wagner singers!« (FAZ);<br />

»The DSO Berlin outdid itself under Philippe Jordan …<br />

Camilla Nylund excelled as the chaste Elisabeth, and<br />

Waltraud Meier, a musician with deep reserves of force<br />

and a gift for madness, was the perfect Venus.«<br />

Jules Massenet (1842 – 1912) turned Goethe’s famous<br />

tale of the tragic love of Werther and Charlotte into one<br />

of the most richly melodic and moving of all French<br />

operas. It was first performed at Vienna’s Hofoper on<br />

16 February 1892. The music of Werther is full of sublime<br />

characterisation, its beguiling melodies revealing<br />

profound insights into the complex states of mind of<br />

the protagonists. Without ignoring his debt to Richard<br />

Wagner, Massenet’s score follows firmly in the tradition<br />

of Georges Bizet. It is generally regarded as the<br />

composer’s masterpiece.
