PARSIFAL

ACT II COMPLETE

The Metropolitan Opera 1938
Melchior, Flagstad, Gabor / Leinsdorf

Available for the first time anywhere, a good sounding recording of the entire second act of Parsifal broadcast in 1938 with Melchior, the supreme voice for Parsifal and Flagstad, an uncommonly bewitching Kundry. Also includes the finale to Act III with Herbert Janssen and Melchior. A connoisseur’s prize, the quality of this Guild Edition will solace many opera lovers who have long believed that no acceptable recording survived of this historic Good Friday Matinée broadcast.
