Прасифаль by Wagner, вск 03 мар. 2024, С (2024/2024), Режиссер Kay Metzger,, Дирижёр Felix Bender, Theater Ulm, Ульм, Германия

A moment of weakness, of lust — and Amfortas, King of the Grail, falls into eternal pain and shame. Had he not once succumbed to Kundry's art of seduction, a sorceress, a mysterious penitent! At this fatal moment, Klingsor snatched the Holy Spear from Amfortas and inflicted a wound on him with the stolen weapon. It's a wound that won't heal. Hope now promises Parsifal. Is he finally the Savior, the prophesied "pure fool, knowing through pity," who will deliver the ailing Amfortas from his torments? Parsifal« is the completion, the culmination of Richard Wagner's life's work. In his last music drama, Wagner combines symbols from mythologies, sagas, legends and religions in a gripping way — and poses transcendental questions, primal thoughts of humanity, between world pain and salvation: dense and full of emotional monstrosity.
