Parsifal in Minden

Ein ersehnter Retter, der seine Mission zunächst nicht begreift: darum geht es in Richard Wagners letzter Oper „Parsifal“, die der Komponist selbst „Bühnenweihfest- spiel“ nannte. Parsifal heißt dieser Unbekannte, der auf eine Ritterschar trifft, die seit vielen Jahren den Kraft spendenden Gral bewacht. Nun aber sind die Gralsritter in Agonie erstarrt, weil ihr Anführer Amfortas verwundet und ohne Hoffnung auf Heilung dahinsiecht. Die nicht mehr heilende Wunde hat sich Amfortas beim Kampf gegen den Widersacher Klingsor zugezogen. Und noch schlimmer: Amfortas hat dabei den heiligen Speer ein- gebüßt, den die Ritterschaft zusammen mit dem Gral – der Schale, mit der das Blut des am Kreuz hängenden Christus aufgefangen wurde – bewachte.

Am Ende aber wird alles gut: denn Parsifal widersteht den Verführungskünsten von Klingsors Zaubermädchen und entwindet dem Bösewicht den heiligen Speer. Er schließt die Wunde des Amfortas und wird neuer Gralskönig.

Deutsch

A longed-for savior who initially does not understand his mission: that is what Richard Wagner's last opera “Parsifal”, which the composer himself called “Bühnenweihfestspiel”, is about. Parsifal is the name of this stranger who meets a band of knights who have been guarding the power-giving Grail for many years. But now the Knights of the Grail are frozen in agony because their leader, Amfortas, is wounded and dying with no hope of healing. Amfortas sustained the no longer healing wound while fighting the adversary Klingsor. And even worse: Amfortas lost the holy spear that the knights guarded together with the Grail – the bowl with which the blood of Christ hanging on the cross was caught.

In the end, however, everything turns out well: for Parsifal resists Klingsor's magic maiden's arts of seduction and wrests the holy spear from the villain. He closes the wound of Amfortas and becomes the new king of the grail.
