Show Biography - The Flying Dutchman
The Flying Dutchman first appeared in the form of a play by Edward Fitzball. It was in 1843 that Richard Wagner developed it into an opera. It had its premiere in Dresden and initiated Wagner's migration from standard opera forms into his own style of music-drama. It was smaller in scale than his later works and ran around two and a quarter hours without intermission. It was a focused and intense experience, both thematically and dramatically arresting. The story was based on a tale by Heine and has its roots in legend. According to Wagner, he used both the Wandering Jew and Odysseus as sources of his character. The opera's seminal theme of redemption, its love triangle and romantic melodrama, was transformed by Wagner's stirring music into a timeless expression of musical theater art. According to Wagner's adaptation, The Dutchman, a sea captain, when faced with daunting storms, swore he would sail for all eternity if necessary to reach his destination. In a Faustian turn, Satan condemns the Dutchman to sail the seas forever. His only hope for redemption is the unconditional love of a woman. The Dutchman is allowed to go ashore once every seven years to seek the woman whose love will save him from his tortured purgatory. Witness the 20th Century adaption of this legendary tale. The Flying Dutchman is one of the most popularly staged operas around the globe. The choreography, lighting and sets are superb and make a captivating influence on the audience.
