Parsifal
Royal Opera House, London
Thu, 6th December 2007 - Fri, 21st December 2007
From £37.00*Wagner’s final masterpiece returns to The Royal Opera repertory this December with Bernard Haitink as conductor. The music is some of the most powerful in all Wagner, combining action with an incredible sense of poise and spirituality, a showpiece for orchestra and singers alike. With the addition of an exceptionally fine cast, for musical performance alone this will be a major musical event to experience. But the power of Parsifal also lies in the tense conflicts of its drama, as Parsifal battles temptation to restore the power of the order of knights who guard the Holy Grail. Klaus Michael Grüber’s production presents striking images such as the vast table of the Knights of the Grail – a tableau of ‘Last Supper’ resonances – and the otherworldly castle of the evil magician Klingsor.
