About This Song
About "Tristan und Isolde, WWV 90 : Wagner: Tristan und Isolde, WWV 90: Prelude to Act 1. Langsam und smachtend" by Berliner Philharmoniker
The Tristan Prelude is a slow dissolve: a chord that never quite lands, a melody that yearns without arrival. Ozawa keeps the tempo 'langsam und schmachtend,' and the orchestra becomes a body suspended between desire and exhaustion, hovering in unresolved twilight.
