Parsifal at the Metropolitan Opera - 2018

When Parsifal is playing in town at the M etropolitan Opera it is a not-to-be-missed event. Luckily this year, I get to see it twice. My first visit was yesterday at the Saturday matinee. I was joined by my good friends Francis and his wife Julia, as well as my friend Vlad. Francis and I went to Bayreuth last summer, so he is well-seasoned in the works of Wagner, but this was Julia and Vlad's first Parsifal. The reaction of my friends to this production, including musical interludes of their favorite moments from this opera, is at the heart of this podcast. Also watch this New York Times video program detailing how they get a pool of blood on the stage of the MET for Act II of this opera.
