Wagner: "Parsifal" - Jess Thomas, George London, Martti Talvela, Hans Hotter, Irene Dalis, Gustav Neidlinger and other soloists, Chorus and Orchestra of the Bayreuth Festival conducted by Hans Knappertsbusch

This five-LP set will run you about $165, a lot of money for one opera (albeit a four-hour-plus opera.) Is it worth it? Well, the sound is terrific, the packaging exquisite, and—most importantly—the performance is nonpareil. I’m a Wagner collector and if limited to just one Parsifal for all eternity, this would be the one. Yes, it’s worth it. Andrew Quint - The Absolute Sound
