La Cieca just can’t get enough of the old Love-Death. So this week’s edition of Unnatural Acts of Opera begins a classic performance of Wagner’s music drama from the 1976 Bayreuth Festival under the magical guidance of Carlos Kleiber.
UPDATE: Well, you can spank La Cieca’s butt and call her “Tony,” because she foolishly neglected to check her facts before writing the script for tonight’s podcast. The Tristan in this performance is not Helge Brilioth (as your doyenne announces) but rather Spas Wenkoff.
