Parsifal is an opera in three acts by German composer Richard Wagner. It is loosely based on Parzival by Wolfram von Eschenbach, a 13th-century epic poemof the Arthurian knight Parzival (Percival) and his quest for the Holy Grail(12th century).  Wagner conceived the work in April 1857, but did not finish it until 25 years later. It was his last completed opera, and in composing it he took advantage of the particular acoustics of his Bayreuth Festspielhaus.  Parsifal was first produced at the second Bayreuth Festivalin 1882. The Bayreuth Festival maintained a monopoly on Parsifal productions until 1903, when the opera was performed at the Metropolitan Opera in New York.


REVIEW: It is refreshing to hear Parsifal without the drawn out broad strokes.  It is tightly and quickly conducted by Boulez, and the orchestra and chorus are at their finest.  King as usual is superb.  Perhaps he was the last of the great heldentenors.  Jones is hair raising as Kundry but she sings the role beautifully and her voice is captured at it's richest.  What a huge voice too and her screams are real. The rest of the cast is very underrated when compared to the competition.  A must in any opera collection.
