Wagner: Der fliegende Holländer
Share this article Share
In Wagner’s unrivalled musical drama, a blasphemous Dutchman is condemned to roam the sea forever. Only the everlasting faithfulness of a woman can break the curse. Senta, the daughter of a sea captain, is prepared to swear her fidelity. Fate determines otherwise, however, and the lovers only come together in death. In Der fliegende Holländer, Wagner returns to one of his most important themes: the redemptive power of love that overcomes death itself. Under the inspired leadership of Tarmo Peltokoski, the Orchestre Philharmonique du Luxembourg brings Wagner’s masterpiece entirely to life in this concert performance.
