Parsifal Bühnenweihfestspiel in three acts

Richard Wagner, 1813-1883

DVD - 2005

Ever since the world premiere of Parsifal at Bayreuth on 26th July 1882, the meaning of Richard Wagner's last opera has been widely discussed. Nikolaus Lehnhoff's visionary staging of this emotionally charged opera reveals a masterpiece of existential drama about human existence. Christopher Ventris and Waltraud Meier lead an inspired cast in high definition recording in true surround sound.
