The pianist Sviatoslav Richter, who attended one of Kleiber's performances at Bayreuth in 1976, wrote in his private notebooks:
"I fear that as long as I live I shall never hear another "Tristan" like this one. This was the real thing. Carlos Kleiber brought the music to a boiling point, and kept it there throughout the whole evening, unleashing an interminable ovation at the end. There's no doubt he's the greatest conductor of our day."
After the performance Richter sought him out backstage:
"He seemed rather depressed and displeased with himself. I told him what I thought and he suddenly leapt into the air with joy, like a child. "Also wirklich gut?" he asked ("So it was really good?"). Such a titan, and so unsure of himself."
===============
"Tristan und Isolde" ("Tristan and Isolde") is an opera in three acts by Richard Wagner, with a German libretto by the composer. The libretto is based on the medieval romance "Tristan" by Gottfried von Strassburg. It was first performed at the Royal Court and National Theatre in Munich on 10th June, 1865.

4:22 this is madness ..... today evening, I've a mad idea .... I feel these sounds are not really "music", no composer's work, not really in the "catalogue" between Brahms and Bruckner ... this is made out of another stuff, this is music which existed before Wagner himself, this are sounds from another .... (?) , pouring on the world ...
