In this oratorio for modern times Isolde longs to escape to the
Transylvanian countryside. She meets Tristan and falls in love. What she
doesn't realise at first is that she has met Tristan before when he was part
of a street gang in London and she tended his injury. Tristan also harbours
a dark secret concerning Isolde's former fiancée.
