Dartmouth Events

This new production of Wagner's classic is an unmissable event, with soprano Lise Davidsen and tenor Michael Spyres as the titular star-crossed lovers.

After years of anticipation, the electrifying Lise Davidsen tackles one of the ultimate roles for dramatic soprano: the Irish princess Isolde in Wagner's transcendent meditation on love and death. Heroic tenor Michael Spyres stars opposite as the love-drunk Tristan. The momentous occasion also marks the advent of a new, Met-debut staging by Yuval Sharon, hailed by The New York Times as "the most visionary opera director of his  generation." 

Mezzo soprano Ekaterina Gubanova reprises her portrayal of Isolde's maid Brangäne, alongside bass-baritone Tomasz Konieczny as Tristan's friend Kurwenal and bass-baritone Ryan Speedo Green as Tristan's uncle, King Marke, whose betrothal to Isolde sets up one of opera's most intense love triangles. Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin conducts his first Met production of this Wagner classic.
