RSNO: Järvi conducts Tristan and Isolde
A theme of doomed love suffuses this concert, conducted by the great Neeme Järvi, and which opens with Sibelius's 'Pelléas and Mélisande'. Next, after the success of his epic orchestral version of Wagner's 'Ring' two seasons ago, Henk de Vlieger has turned his hand to 'Tristan and Isolde', compressing the opera, and its intense emotional landscape, into a symphonic work - no mean feat.
