Wagner’s Tristan und Isolde conveys the tender weight of grief with exquisite harmonies, and Tchaikovsky recounts forbidden lovers from Dante’s Inferno who are eternally tossed in the wind. The highs and lows of a bittersweet romance are on display in scenes from Strauss’s Der Rosenkavalier. On a happier note, we'll also hear Richard Wagner's special birthday present to his wife, the Siegfried Idyll.
Jader Bignamini leads the Detroit Symphony Orchestra in this deeply Romantic program. This is the final Detroit broadcast of the season. Be sure to join us, Monday morning at 10:40 live here on Blue Lake Public Radio!
