Wagner: Parsifal (Extended Excerpts) - Hering, Shuard, von Rohr, Godfrey; Maag. Marseille, 1968

$8.95



Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • Karl-Josef Hering offers supreme lyricism and purity of tone as Parsifal.
  • Amy Shuard's Kundry is both feral and alluring.
  • The biggest surprise of the evening is the exquisite conducting of Peter Maag.

Cons:

  • I am guessing the mic placement was backstage, because the backstage chorus and the bells of Montsalvat often overwhelm the stage and pit.
