Eine Wunde, die nicht verheilt, quält den Gralskönig Amfortas: Sein Gegner Klingsor fügte ihm diese Verletzung zu, als er ihm den heiligen Speer entwendete. ...

A wound that does not heal torments the Grail King Amfortas: His opponent Klingsor inflicted this injury on him when he stole the holy spear from him. The knights, who guard the Holy Grail and promise eternal life, try to help Amfortas - but according to the prophecy only a "clean fool" can save him. When the inexperienced Parsifal joins the community, the Grail knight Gurnemanz thinks he recognizes the prophesied savior in him. But Parsifal first has to go through painful experiences of his own before the strength of compassion is revealed to him and he can find his place in the Brotherhood of the Grail.

Richard Wagner described the last opera he composed as his "most reconciling work". He combines elements of Christian, Buddhist and Hindu beliefs with motifs from myths and legends to create his own Parsifal myth. Wagner's composition fascinates with its sophisticated leitmotif technique and mystical sound spheres - Thomas Mann wrote that the score is "full of sounds, which one follows with ever new unrest, curiosity and enchantment."

After Tristan and Isolde , the Hagen Theater is again showing a monumental work by Richard Wagner in its own interpretation.
