Wagner - Parsifal

The premiere of Parsifal in major opera houses was not until 1914, the Bayreuth Festival having maintained the exclusivity of the opera since its opening in 1882. Parsifal, the innocent, compassionate guileless fool, embodies the spirit of redemption. This is the starting point for the staging by German director Claus Guth. Already being one of the most important names in contemporary staging, he makes his début at the Teatro Real with this acclaimed production. The action takes place in a dilapidated hospital for war-wounded soldiers. Inspired by the sanatorium in The Magic Mountain by Thomas Mann, it embodies the trauma and despair following World War I, when hopes for a new leader led to disaster. This performance was recorded in 2016 at the Teatro Real, in Madrid.
