The Flying Dutchman
Performed as Wagner originally wrote it.
Why see The Flying Dutchman?
A sea captain is doomed by a curse to an existence of eternal wandering; a yearning heroine is desperate to escape her restricting world - all set against the uncontrolled violence of the sea.
Their passionate encounter is a story of compelling tension and musical intensity. This early masterpiece of Wagner's, presented in the US premiere of the 1841 critical edition and in honor of his bicentennial, ends the season on a note of high drama.
The new production is directed by Michael Cavanagh and stars Allison Oakes, Alfred Walker, and Gregory Frank. BLO Music Director David Angus conducts.
