$18.95



Description:

René Kollo brings elegant lyricism and uncommon warmth to the title role, shaping phrases with elegance and poise. Hans Sotin's soft-grained basso profundo paints a Gurnemanz who is both noble and humane. As Kundry, Eva Randová may not possess the most alluring timbre, but her dramatic commitment—especially in the final moments of Act II—is undeniable. Bernd Weikl offers one of the most beautifully sung interpretations of Amfortas, full of anguish and vocal finesse. Franz Mazura brings focused menace to Klingsor, his tone bristling with malevolence throughout.
