Welsh National Opera

Alongside the very familiar La Bohème and Madam Butterfly, we’re also offering something off the beaten track in Spring 2017. Many opera-goers will be familiar with Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde but Frank Martin’s intimate opera offers a very different take on the legend.

This rare staged production of this exquisite and elegant tragedy promises a truly intoxicating experience.Tristan and Isolde are enemies brought together when they mistakenly drink a love potion. Their affair inevitably leads to a tragedy.

Running time approximately one hour 35 minutes with no interval

Sung in English with surtitles in English.
