Gothenburg Opera's revival under the baton of Leo Hussain shone with a harmonious cast in a timeless staging.

Wagner’s The Flying Dutchman is a tale not only about redemption through love, but also about the helpless plight of human beings in the face of wilful and vindictive supernatural forces. In the hands of Wagner, the mythical Dutchman, instead of being a collector of itinerant souls at sea, has become an intrepid adventurer condemned to eternal maritime wandering.

Mit Ambroise Thomas' Oper über den dänischen Prinzen beginnt die Oper Göteborg ihr Mitfeiern am Shakespeare-Jahr 2016.
