Description Of Event	Esa-Pekka Salonen returns with this remarkable production of Wagner�s Tristan and Isolde directed by Peter Sellars with video by Bill Viola, one of America�s leading visual artists. When the Tristan Project was first performed in 2004, The New York Times called it a highlight of Salonen�s tenure and hailed it as �a multimedia conception that promised to be so ingenious that listeners traveled long distances to catch it and talked about it for months.� Matching Wagner�s 19th-century desire to expand what opera could be with 21st-century innovation, Viola and Sellars� staging explores the psychological, spiritual, and elemental subtext of the story. This rare opportunity to see the Tristan Project features a globally celebrated cast, headlined by Nina Stemme and Stephen Gould. nnIn Tristan and Isolde, Wagner tells the star-crossed tale of two doomed lovers, but it was his musical setting that caused a revolution. Beginning with the very first notes, the famed �Tristan chord,� Wagner elicits an endless yearning that mirrors the tumultuous emotional worlds of our heroes, with an innovative harmonic approach that left an unavoidable impact on generations of composers.
