A live performance from the Festspielhaus Baden-Baden in 2008 with superb singing, with Camilla Nylund as Elisabeth especially good, but the modern production based on a huge spiral staircase won't be to everyone's taste.

Deutsches Symphonie-Orchester Berlin, Philharmonia Chor Wien, conducted by Philippe Jordan, 2008.

Cast: Robert Gambill (Tannhäuser), Camilla Nylund (Elisabeth), Roman Trekel (Wolfram).

Arthaus Musik 101 351
