Richard Wagner

Tannhäuser, Siegfried-Idyll
Tristan und Isolde

Jessye Norman, soprano
Herbert von Karajan, conductor
Vienna Philharmonic

   

That Wagner's Tristan und Isolde is one of the landmark works in the opera literature is self-evident and incontrovertible. This transcendent performance of Isoldes Liebestod by Jessye Norman was conducted by the late, great Herbert von Karajan in one of his last performances, capping a magnificent career.
