Admirable Nelsons

Latvian conductor Andris Nelsons is something of a New Englander now, having settled in as the music director of the Boston Symphont Orchestra, but his background is as international as one would expect: born in Riga, trained in St. Petersburg and Oslo, and well-seasoned in venues in Germany and throughout the UK. In a special HD simulcast on Sunday, he conducts the Berlin Philharmonic in a live production of the Prelude and the Act III Karfreitagszauber (“Good Friday Spell”) to Wagner’s Parsifal, followed by Anton Bruckner’s Symphony No. 3 in D minor.

Berlin Philharmonic — Andris Nelsons Conducts Wagner and Bruckner: Sunday at 12:55 p.m. $5.50-$8.75. Amherst Cinema, 28 Amity St., Amherst. (413) 253-2547, amherstcinema.org
