For centuries, the Flying Dutchman sails the seas, condemned
to live until he can find salvation in the love of a truly faithful
woman. Senta, a teenage village girl on the Norwegian coast, proves
faithful to the death. This is love, betrayal, and redemption Wagner
style. Der fliegende
Holländer is an early work of genius, and the
last of Wagner’s italianate operas. |
