It's all about the music, dude! Sit down, relax and listen to some tunes.

Full report expected, of course

Tristan und Isolde represents that one Wagner opera I have never been able to really crack, even though I have seen it live and also own quite few recordings (Furtwangler, Solti, Bohm, Kleiber, Janowski, Pappano). One that I probably should own is the Karajan, since I am such a Vickers fan, although it garners mixed reviews.

Goodall is not the only fascist on this list of conductors. Bohm was considered to be quite the supporter of national socialism, and Karajan was a party member until, oddly enough, 1942 (when he married a woman with Jewish ancestry). OK, old information.
