Listen to a Sample:

 

Pros:

  • René Kollo brings sumptuous lyricism to the title role.
  • Hans Sotin's soft-grained basso profundo makes for a Gurnemanz who is both imposing and approachable.
  • Eva Randová might not have the most alluring voices, but her fiery temperment carries her a long way as Kundry, particularly towards the end of Act II.
  • Bernd Weikl delivers one of the most beautifully sung Amfortases I have ever heard.
  • Franz Mazura brings ample mallevolance to the role of Klingsor.

Cons:

  • None to mention.
