“Alan Held makes a riveting Dutchman. Jennifer Wilson registers sit-up-and-take-notice star power in her role debut as Senta.” ~The Baltimore Sun
“Held justified his growing reputation as a Wagnerian.” ~The Washington Post
“A vocally dazzling presentation.” ~The Washington Times
Misfortune, greed, and fidelity collide in this storm-battered tale of one man’s quest for life-saving love. Wagner retells
the nautical legend of the fearsome Flying Dutchman, cursed to sail the seas until he finds a woman who will love him until death.
