Thielemann trionfa con "Parsifal" al Festival di Salisburgo

Christian Thielemann, descritto dal Daily Telegraph come "il direttore tedesco più ricercato", ha lasciato il segno al Festival pasquale di Salisburgo con una serata d'apertura di grande successo. Nel suo primo anno da direttore artistico ha saputo dirigere in modo esemplare il Parsifal di Wagner che ha aperto il Festival il 23 marzo. Il Financial Times ha commentato: "...il suo Parsifal è stato definitivo. Ogni dettaglio è controllato in modo superlativo, sobrio e trasparente. Ogni parola del testo è perfettamente udibile. ..è bello e il più vicino alla perfezione che si possa raggiungere.” La produzione è stata registrata su DVD da Deutsche Grammophon e la sua pubblicazione alla fine di Maggio sarà seguita a giugno 2013 dalle registrazioni di Thielemann del ciclo completo dell'Anello del Nibelungo, a conferma della sua incontestabile reputazione di più autorevole specialista alla direzione di Wagner.
