Pros:
- The cast in this performance of Der fliegende Holländer may not jump out at you initially, but think twice before you move on. This is a very compelling performance, in no small part to the insightful leadership of Vittorio Gui.
- Gui was a master Wagnerian, in part, I believe, because he came from a completely different background. Unmoored from the traditions of a generation of German conductors, Gui approaches the piece with fresh eyes, and reveals a lot about the music and drama.
- Siw Ericsdotter is a singer I had never heard of before, and she is excellent as Senta. Her steely voice fits perfectly into the part.
- Tomislav Neralic sings the title role with ease and refinement.
Cons:
- None to mention
