I didn't necessarily want bits people would recognize as much as bits that would inspire them to want to watch more (which it seems is at least somewhat correlated with bits people recognize!)
Heh, Tristan und Isolde is the one opera I have not been able to get through at all. And I really like the Ring! (I suppose part of the issue is that the version RL Opera Friend lent me is rather regie -- she tends to just go straight for whatever production has the best singing in it.)
