Wagner Leitmotifs | 35 Desolation : Tristan und Isolde @wagnerleitmotifs7654 | Uploaded August 2013 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
This leitmotif is first heard in the prelude to act 3.
This motif is a continuation of Pain of Death and represents the barrenness of the sea and Isolde's absence. Wagner makes this motif particularly sombre and gripping by using a lot of minor 2nd and minor 3rd intervals.
