POOH, I - Parsifal (1973)

The Article has images
2008-07-16 09:19:11 by Editor in Progarchives.com (Progressive rock and related latest reviews)
Parsifal' is the first album with the classic line-up. In my opinion is the more Prog album of I Pooh. Interesting is the fact that the Prog is present for the use of orchestra and symphonic music. In truth the music is distant to Prog, very distant. But not for all songs. The songs that should be reported and explained individually are:...

...Parsifal'' for the first time. You almost guessed, - I answered, - he played with this band for some time, though not on this album. Today, when I listened to the album, she said that some tracks sound like Pupo If seriously, Parsifal has its moments. The album starts promisingly with almost 7-minute ''L'Anno, Il Posto, L'Ora'' - delicate...

The Wagner Cube

2008-06-26 11:52:00 by Patrick J. Smith in The Penitent Wagnerite
 
...Parsifal for Hans Knappertsbusch in 1962, though I prefer Jon Vickers from 1964, despite the mono sound. Anja Silja features prominently as Sawallisch's go-to gal for the soprano roles of Elsa, Elisabeth, and Senta. I don't know that I am in love with Silja, but she's not terrible. I could go on about these recordings, but they're well-known...
