Wagner’s last opera, Parsifal, is a medieval epic marked by Christian, Buddhist, and esoteric references. Redemption and renewal underly the narrative, but this production by Russian director Dmitri Tcherniakov adds a jarring note of revenge. Daniel Barenboim conducts an international cast of exceptional singers: Andreas Schager, Anja Kampe, Wolfgang Koch, René Pape, Tomas Tómasson, and Matthias Hölle.
