Who could resist a 1913 recording of the orchestral suite from Parsifal played by the Berlin Philharmonic and conducted by Alfred Hertz? Certainly not any rabid Wagner fan: Hertz was the conductor who broke the ban on Parsifal by performing it at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York in 1904, the first time the work had ever been performed outside of Bayreuth. And his way with the score is beguiling: the soft contours of the themes, the ambiguity of the harmonies, the quivering expectancy of the tone; all of these things are essential to the music of Parsifal and Hertz realizes them with rapturous precision in this performance. And any fan of historic recordings couldn't resist: this Berlin Philharmonic recording preceded its famous recording of Beethoven's Symphony No. 5 by two months, the first compete recording of any symphonic work. As a historical document of the early days of recording, this Parsifal is of overwhelming significance. And no fan of historical performance practice could resist either: although the B.P.O. was scaled down to 30 players because of the requirements of early recording techniques, the sound of the slimmed down B.P.O. is still the sound of the world's greatest orchestra playing at the top of its virtuosic form. If the strings sound perhaps too tremulous and the brass perhaps too bold, that has more to do with the recording than with the orchestra. The warm sound, the brilliant sonorities, the seamless legato, the portamento between pitches: all of the things that defined the B.P.O. before WWI are here in this performance. This is an irresistible recording with superb remastering.
