Aiming to keep good news up front, Katharina Wagner has given details about the Parsifal she is planning for 2023.

The director Jay Scheib, an MIT professor with an interest in ‘augmented reality’, will require the audience to wear special-effects glasses that will augment the action on stage.

The title role will be sung by the Maltese tenor Joseph Calleja.

The Belarus soprano Ekaterina Semenchuk, presently recovring from Covid, will sing Kundry.
