Title: good performance, worthless commentary
Review: As others have noted, this is not a complete performance. In fact, the scenes from what appear to be an excellent Kirov performance are all too brief. What predominates this otherwise waste of 90 min is a self-serving attempt at commentary by some "experts" (who are not) who lack any understanding of the work or even of Wagner. If you want to get to know PARSIFAL, arguably Wagner's masterpiece, leave this alone as there are several books, such as the ENO guide, that do a far better job. If the complete Kirov performance ever does become available, that can be recommended. This cannot.
