His incredible voice and outstanding musicianship have seen him perform all over the world, from the Sydney Opera House to New York\\u2019s Metropolitan Opera, and from the English National Opera to Milan\\u2019s legendary La Scala. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eShining Knight features arias from many of the roles that have become synonymous with Stuart Skelton \\u2013 Parsifal, Lohengrin, Siegmund \\u2013 as well as Lieder and songs from outside the operatic repertoire. \\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eThe disc begins with one of Wagner\\u2019s earliest works, Rienzi, and traces the composer\\u2019s development as he invents a new musical language in his Ring cycle, his great operas Parsifal and Tristan und Isolde, and then to the Wesendonck Lieder that foreshadows so much of his later work. Skelton then turns to America, and two composers from the generation inspired by Wagner: Charles Griffes and Samuel Barber.\\r\u003cbr\u003e\\r\u003cbr\u003eAccompanied here by the West Australian Symphony Orchestra conducted by his friend and frequent collaborator Asher Fisch, Shining Knight showcases one of the world\\u2019s greatest voices at the very peak its powers.\u003cp\u003eWAGNER Allm\\xe4cht\\u2019ger Vater, Blick Herab From Rienzi\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWAGNER In Fernem Land, Unnahbar Euren Schritten From Lohengrin\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWAGNER Winterst\\xfcrme Wichen Dem Wonnemond From Die Walk\\xfcre\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWAGNER Amfortas!
