Wagner: Tristan und Isolde (Season 2, Episode 6)
Not Rated
TV Episode | 249 min | Musical

Wagner's supporters say that he took music to new heights of expression here; his detractors say it's the death-knell for melody and structure. It's four hours of aching yearning that does not rest until the last few minutes of the opera.
