Philharmonic Discourse

The opera Parsifal is Richard Wagner’s last stage work and his artistic legacy. Wagner intriguingly combines ideas which he already laid out in earlier compositions in one great epic. In Parsifal, life’s “ultimate questions” are presented in musical form. Pianist and Wagner expert Stefan Mickisch guides us through this labyrinth of love and life, birth and death, and of suffering and salvation.
