At SF Opera, 'Parsifal' Will Stop You Dead in Your Tracks | KQED

I can't answer the long-running question about Parsifal being a Christian opera or not, but seeing it this past Sunday returned me to those long hours of my religious upbringing, spent in pews and listening to sermons on compassion, suffering and redemption.
