Parsifal

Album by Richard Wagner

Parsifal is an opera in three acts by German composer Richard Wagner, first performed in 1882. Musically it exemplifies Wagner's late music-drama approach with extensive use of leitmotifs, dense chromatic harmonies and large-scale orchestral textures, and it represents his final completed stage work with a pronounced focus on spiritual and ritual themes.
First released: 26th October 1999
