Parsifal

Parsifal

This 1956 Bayreuth performance of Richard Wagners last opera Parsifal falls on the timeline about halfway between two justifiably famous recordings, Deccas 1951 (mono) and Philips 1962 (stereo) releases, featuring the same conductor, Hans Knappertsbusch, whose luminous conducting of Parsifal (choose any one) in particular is unmatched on record. The cast, as is typically the case from this era of Bayreuth productions, can hardly be bettered: Martha MÃ¶dl, RamÃ³n Vinay, a young Dietrich-Fischer-Dieskau (as Amfortas), Hans Hotter, Josef Greindl and Toni Blankenheim.
