"As Amfortas Estes is once again at his very best, bringing out the anguish and pity in the music, both in his rich, intense tone and his well-considered diction - the cries of "Erbarmen" truly searing; again, this must rank with the best interpreters of the past. The recording tends to favour the singer, who - make no mistake - is that rarity today, a really heroic bass-baritone." (Gramophone)
Tracks:
Die Frist ist um (from Der fliegende Holländer)
Laß ich's verlauten (from Die Walküre)
Leb wohl, du kühnes, herrliches Kind! (from Die Walküre)
Mein Sohn, Amfortas...Wehvolles Erbe, dem ich verfallen! (from Parsifal)
