Wolfgang Wagner´s 1989 Bayreuth Festival staging of Parsifal will be revived next year in Seoul, Korea overseen by his daughter Katharina. She states, that she declined an offer to stage a Parsifal production of her own, thinking her style "not appropriate in this cultural setting".
Apparently a dusty 20-year old Parsifal production is more appropriate...
Whatever qualities Wolfgang Wagner may have, innovative stagings of his grandfathers works are not among them...
