The much awaited - at least here at the Wagnerian - MET's new Parsifal (François Girard's production) will be available at cinemas world wide on the 2 March 2013. At least in England, we can confirm that the number of cinemas carrying the broadcast has been extended dramatically since last years MET Ring in HD offerings. Even your humble editor , who seems to spend much to much time in an area where the Les Misérables movie is a highbrow cultural event, has found a cinema showing it locally.
