Dying for love ("Liebestod"), an extraordinary act devoid of any worldly logic, is also the final aria sung by the protagonist of Tristan and Isolde and one of the high points of Romantic music. For this reunion between two lovers, Richard Wagner wrote one of the most fascinating pieces of music of all time. The Barcelona Symphony Band's assistant conductor, Carlos Ramón, offers us a program that revolves around these two Wagnerian characters.
