Der Fliegende Holländer

The meeting on stage of two great singing actors is always exciting, and sparks fly in this recording when George London’s haunted Flying Dutchman encounters Leonie Rysanek’s incandescent Senta. The remarkable Giorgio Tozzi is Senta’s ambitious but kind-hearted father, Daland, who brings the lovers together. Karl Böhm keeps Wagner’s turbulent score boiling.
