\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As these lines fill the blank space of our pc we learn the sad news of Stephen Gould\u2019s untimely demise, a universally well-loved tenor, one of the few exponents of the heavier Wagnerian Fach<\/em>, especially appreciated by Bayreuth Festival devotees. We therefore extend our most sincere and deeply felt condolences to all his beloved ones and to the large public of his admirers.<\/p>\n

During our almost 5-year absence from Bayreuth and its emblematic Richard Wagner Opera Festival due to reasons of family and public health, we were exposed to a cumulative negative publicity regarding this difficult but invaluable institution. TV communication of its often-aleatory productions was not as convincing as one would expect from such a venerable venue, the problem with the use of spectacles for the most recent \u201cParsifal<\/em>\u201d revival deterred us from its in loco<\/em> attendance, while, days only before our coming to the Holy Land of Wagner adulation, a two-part 3sat documentary bearing the alarming title \u201cWagnerd\u00e4mmerung<\/em>\u201d (Wagner Twilight) barely encouraged our expectations. In view of all these negative presuppositions we have to report our relief from attending two productions that, though not traditional, abstained mercifully from the alienating element that many contemporary others pursue to the detriment of the visitor\u2019s involvement with the Wagner \u00ab\u03ba\u03cc\u03c3\u03bc\u03bf\u03c2<\/em>\u00bb and its indisputable magic.<\/p>\n

Having been repeatedly exposed to unpleasant \u201cTristan und Isolde<\/em>\u201d revivals, at first to the literal Christoph Marthaler one of 2005, which incidentally led to Eiji Oue\u2019s hasty walkout and deterred Nina Stemme from returning to the Festspielhaus, we were delighted by the new one by Roland Schwab, spatial and airy, futuristic as well as naturalist, with daily sky blue or grey clouds alternating with the moonless night\u2019s galactic firmament, a production that for once allowed a necessary atmosphere to pervade this idealistically romantic love plot. More than any other Wagner masterwork, \u201cTristan und Isolde<\/em>\u201d benefits from a communicative, ecstatic atmosphere, absolutely vital for the empathy of the audience with the mostly esoteric lengthy proceedings of this three-act \u201cHandlung<\/em>\u201d.\u00a0 In this respect the use of computer technology to signify mental and soul states of the eponymous hero and heroine, as, for example, the whirlpool of mutual passion in the extensive love duet, only enhances the credit to the scenery of Piero Vinciguerra and the lighting by Nicol Hungsberg, with a question mark for the intensive movement imposed to the protagonists in act 1 by Christian Schroeder\u2019s dramaturgy, conforming to the pace of the music but difficult to follow by the two singers.<\/p>\n

And what singers! We firmly believe that Isolde represents a special pinnacle in the long and prestigious career of Catherine Foster. Her voice sits magnificently to the role, with luminous, full tone in mid and lower range coupled by fearless attacks to the stratosphere of her act 1 Narrative and Curse. \u00a0Standing by her side was Clay Hilley, a young American revelation who replaced, almost au pied lev\u00e9<\/em>, his meanwhile late compatriot Stephen Gould, fresh from his triumphant Siegfried in Dmitri Tcherniakov\u2019s production of the \u201cRing<\/em>\u201d for the Staatsoper Unter den Linden Berlin under the baton of Christian Thielemann. His voice was ringing and true, with impeccable diction, a pleasant Heft<\/em> in declamatory passages as well as euphonious warmth in the many lyrical ones. While an exemplary singer, Georg Zeppenfeld lacked the extra bass fundament that enhances paternal and regal authority of wronged King Mark\u2019s role. Christa Mayer is probably the all-round contemporary reference as Brang\u00e4ne<\/em>, magically engulfed in the Festspielhaus acoustics by the select Bayreuth Festival Orchestra, as much in her Warning interference as also in act 2 opening scene with Isolde. A solid Kurwenal by Markus Eiche, a strong but unevenly voiced Melot by Icelandic baritone \u00d3lafur Sigurdarson<\/em> and vignettes by three tenors, South African Siyabonga Macungo as a fresh-voiced Young Sailor, Spaniard Jorge Rodr\u00edguez<\/em>–Norton<\/em> as the Shepherd and Raimund Nolte, a German at last, as the Helmsman, rounded up a cast almost universally applauded by the public of the August 13th<\/sup> performance. \u00a0Markus Poschner, a newcomer to Bayreuth who made his Festival debut last year in this same production, offered a well-judged orchestral narrative and pace, with special regard to softer dynamics in the score, provided safety and space for sensitive phrasing to his singers and brought the work to a suitably elevated culmination of soul-searching ecstasy.<\/p>\n

Bayreuth Festival chorus has little and off stage to do in \u201cTristan und Isolde<\/em>\u201d, but is a protagonist second to none in \u201cDer Fliegende Holl\u00e4nder<\/em>\u201d (\u201cThe Flying Dutchman\u201d, Fr. \u201cLe Vaisseau Fant\u00f4me<\/em>\u201d). Its level of scenic and vocal perfection under its long-term master Eberhard Friedrich has to be savored in the exceptional Festspielhaus acoustics in order to be amply believed. This seemingly overstated formulation was vociferously vindicated on August 14th<\/sup> by a delirious audience in the end of this uninterrupted early version of the score (graced though by the additional later concluding expiation music in the overture and finale), with more curtain calls than for any member of yet another truly exceptional cast, well-nigh ideal for this tempestuous drama. \u00a0<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Irrespective of Dmitri Tcherniakov\u2019s complex and -to many- inconclusive update of the plot, the production, with costumes by Elena Zaytseva and lighting by Gleb Filshtinsky, was redeemed by high rehearsal standards (dramaturgy by Tatiana Werestchagina) providing an intense theatrical experience. It benefits from Tcherniakov\u2019s minutely realistic scenery, which reproduces in captivating detail every aspect of a village, its petite bourgeoisie<\/em> and its latent p\u00e9ch\u00e9s<\/em>, sadly inadequately transferred to the film of the production as shown on Tv on its first airing at the Green Hill. The cast included such valiant interpreters as Croatian tenor \u2018s Tomislav Mu\u017eek<\/em> intensely acted and sung Erik, the ever reliable but vocally lightish bass of Georg Zeppenfeld as Daland, veteran mezzo\u2019s Nadine Weissmann vignette of Frau Mary, who interestingly becomes the on-stage executioner of the eponymous Dutchman, and an excellently sung Steuermann by German tenor<\/em>\u00a0of Turkish descent Tansel Akzeybek.<\/p>\n

Even in this frame of excellence though, the performance raised to an all-round exalted level thanks as much to the dynamic yet transparent and flexible conducting of young rising Ukrainian conductor Oksana Lyniv, repeating the work of her 2017 Barcelona stage debut, as also to the exceptional embodiments of Senta and the Dutchman by hugely beneficial newcomers to the production.<\/p>\n

\u00a0Combining striking northern looks with resplendent tonal opulence and accuracy in all vocal regions, the 42-years-old Norwegian soprano, fresh after a well-deserved 2020 Kirsten Flagstad Prize, was a Senta to reckon with, more often than enough reminiscent of young Leonie Rysanek assumptions of the role, in Bayreuth and elsewhere. Interacting and intersinging (if we may permit ourselves the solecism) with her was the experienced Michael Volle, at last a Dutchman of what should be a Bayreuth level. It was not only that Volle possessed an impressive physique du r\u00f4le<\/em> for this tormented, well built, sea wolf macho captain, but also his equally impressive psychological identification with the deeper understanding of this colossal part. His stage histrionics remained measured and properly judged, never testing the firmness of tone and the vocal line oh his expressive singing as intended by the composer. All in all, a tremendous performance that should be documented in sound and picture, in order to improve on the former filming of the production and, even more important, to complement the Bayreuth legacy with interpretations reminiscent of old-time references\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
