Pablo Heras-Casado returns to Die Bayreuther Festspiele to conduct the revival of Jay Scheib’s production of Parsifal. Heras-Casado’s return follows a highly acclaimed debut last year with the same title. The first performance is scheduled on 27 July, and performances continue until 24 August.

The production runs through six performances and features a cast including Derek Welton as Amfortas, Tobias Kehrer as Titurel, Georg Zeppenfeld as Gurnemanz, Andreas Schager as Parsifal, Jordan Shanahan as Klingsor, and Ekaterina Gubanova as Kundry.

In conjunction with the Festival, Deutsche Gramophone has recently released a recording of last year’s Parsifal on CD, Blu-ray and online.

Heras-Casado is announced to conduct Der Ring des Nibelungen at the Bayreuther Festspiele in 2028 and at the Opera de Paris for the next three seasons.
