In Palermo where Richard Wagner composed this monumental opera during a long stay, conductor Omer Meir Wellber makes a highly successful debut as music director of Palermo's Teatro Massimo, architecturally and artistically one of Italy's most impressive opera houses. "With the Teatro Massimo's excellent orchestra he succeeded in a reading that was absolutely straight forward" (Opera Today). The singers are excellently cast especially Julian Hubbard as Parsifal "who was a sensation" (neue musikzeitung). Stage director "Graham Vick strips Parsifal of mysticism to deliver a powerful indictment of divisive ideologies" (Musical America).
