Last time around the Met's Tristan struck me as if it were trying to be Wieland Wagner, but just wasn't that cool. Some things work, but oh man is the set for the opening of Act III dumb and some of the sudden lighting changes are risible.
(souf' side represent!)
Well that sounds less promising. I feel it would be kind of fun if for the next new Tristan they went against the grain and did a full blown period take, perhaps with a Life Aquatic style medieval ship cross section...and sails ON-STAGE.
That's my boy Massenet--healthy doses of repentence, sex and religion in equal measure, stir in the hottest male and female stars available and watch it fizz.
If you two really have conversations like that I'm jealous! I adore emy husband but he's NOT an opera-lover.
If the Seattle "Tristan" ever gets staged again, you must catch it. The ship doesn't sail on stage, but oh boy. And Act II is just awesome.
Huh. Just realized that I totally wrote "Ms." by instinct, even tho Violetta and the Jones of the reference are both decidedly "Miss". I am a really good feminist.
