Parsifal - Final

[@robertmanno5749]

Magical production. Levine, Jerusalem, Weikl, Waltraud Meier et al were extraordinary. I was in the Chorus for every MET Parsifal between 1977-2001.

[@chocolatesouljah]

Great memories. Thank you for sharing.

[@BenEmberley]

Thank you for letting us know. Nothing is more beautiful than Wagner's choruses.

[@kunozeller38]

Großartiges und sehr ergreifendes Finale: Orchester, Levine, Weikl und Jerusalem in Bestform. Chor, Bühnenbild und Inszenierung wunderbar, danke dafür!

The greatest musical composition in human history.

A five-hour musical meditation. Among the very best.

It's not an "opera" or some story about a ceremony, it is the ceremony.

[@christianwouters6764]

What marvelous voices! And exactly right tempo. Many conductors think that taking everything extra slow enhances the drama while in fact it diminishes it.

The moment when Kundry is finally able to die, after all her centuries of misery, is very moving.

[@ramonlopez8354]

Just terrible, beautiful and inspiring... everything at the same time.

WAGNER IS DIVINITY!

Una sola palabra... Sublime.

[@tonylamberti9623]

MANY YEARS AGO I SAW THIS PROUCTION AT THE MET IN NEW YORK,OUTSTANDING PERFORMANCE..I WAS MOVED TO TEARS...LOVE JERUSAMEM..LEVINE WAS CONDUCTING..IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST PRODUCTIONS EVER..........

[@arnoldconrad744]

I saw it too. An Otto Schenk production, if memory serves, and faithful to Wagner's intentions.

[@stillstanding6031]

@@arnoldconrad744 Levine was a master of Wagner: His textures, tempos , and colors were unmatached.

[@georgesclermont1911]

I saw this production in the 80s but the Girard production of 2013 was EXTRAORDINARY. It was simplified and focused on the ethereal music and its symbolism.

[@Edwards-Videos]

Beautiful. I am always moved by the Third Act of this production!

[@stefansimon-autor4602]

Thank God for this DVD!

Beautiful, but beyond words.

Ah-teutonic angst at it's best. I actually bought this from the Met collection and have enjoyed it immensely. Superior performances all around and never a better Kundry have i seen.

[@jmballestra7607]

Musique sublime et intemporelle !!! Inégalable Wagner !!!!

[@jimthorne304]

Great production, but somehow every production has a Holy Grail that looks like an art deco side light.

[@MrBulky992]

Perhaps that's what they use, probably from IKEA.

HOLY GRAIL SACRED BLOOD

[@lamouchejeanluc980]

Dans cette captation, on peut reconnaître - dans le rôle de PARSIFAL - celui qui fut l'un des plus grands ténors wagnériens des années 1980-1990, à savoir l'allemand Siegfried JERUSAMEM, aussi bien à Bayreuth qu'au MET de New York, etc... Il était capable d'interpréter aussi bien LOHENGRIN que PARSIFAL (comme ici) ou le personnage de heldentenor de SIEGFRIED pour le "Ring"...

[@fabptitpom]

Toutefois, savez-vous pourquoi il n'a jamais chanté le rôle titre de Tannhäuser ? Cela m'a toujours paru surprenant.

[@wadenbachalwin7698]

​@@fabptitpom Selon ses propres dires, Siegfried Jerusalem ne voulait pas chanter Tannhäuser. Ce rôle est considéré, avant Tristan, comme le plus grand défi pour un ténor héroïque. Il ne se déplace constamment qu'autour du passagio (notes mi, fa, fa dièse) et est en outre très aigu. Les finales du premier et du deuxième acte sont des chevauchées de parade qui tuent la voix. Jerusalem a toujours eu des difficultés avec le passagio, c'est pourquoi il n'a jamais très bien réussi le chevalier Walther von Stolzing. C'est aussi pour cette raison qu'il a reculé devant Tannhäuser.

[@gheorghefalcaru]

THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
