The Wagner bicentenary celebrations continue
with the composer’s boldest fusion of legend and
harmonic innovation, Tristan and Isolde, which forced
him to break off work on his Ring cycle near this
very juncture in the Proms Ring – during the
composition of Siegfried and before the final
instalment, Götterdämmerung.
Semyon Bychkov conducts the
BBC Symphony Orchestra and
a cast led by Violeta Urmana
and Peter Seiffert in a drama
where love and death become
one.

Tickets £9.50 - £46.

Therre will be two intervals of 30 minutes.
