Der Fliegende Holländer (The Flying Dutchman)

  • A scene from Wagner's Der Fliegende Holländer © Ken Howard / Metropolitan Opera

Celebrated French-Canadian director François Girard presents his vision of The Flying Dutchman. The opera tells of a sailor condemned to sail the seas for eternity unless he can find a woman willing to be faithful to him until death. He finds such a woman in the heroine, Senta, who is obsessed by a portrait of the Dutchman hanging in her home. In Girard's interpretation, the focus of the opera is more on Senta than on the Dutchman himself: "It's the story of a girl who is looking at a painting so intensely that it comes to life and will swallow her into death", he explains.
