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.
