Wagner: Der fliegende Holländer - Crass, Rysanek, Ridderbusch, Heater; Sawallisch. Milano, 1966
$8.95
Description:
Thomas Schippers once famously stopped conducting near the end of a performance of Der fliegende Holländer, so transfixed was he by the sheer emotional force Leonie Rysanek poured into the final moments of the opera. This performance offers a powerful glimpse of that intensity. Rysanek is incandescent as Senta—vocally fearless, dramatically fearless, and utterly transfixing.
Franz Crass brings elegance and gravitas to the title role, shaping the Dutchman’s tortured lines with lyrical authority. Wolfgang Sawallisch leads a fiery yet refined performance from the pit, balancing propulsion with sensitivity to Wagner’s dramatic arcs.
