Parsifal

With a large list of operatic masterpieces already behind him, Wagner concluded his extraordinary career with Parsifal, a spectacular medieval fantasy based on Arthurian legend. This “sacred stage festival” recounts the journey of Parsifal, a pure-hearted young man who sets out to find the Holy Spear and, after a series of initiatory trials, becomes a Christ-like figure who himself brings salvation to the castle of Montsalvat.
