Karl Bohm - Wagner: Der Fliegende Hollander

Limited edition Hybrid Stereo double SACD

Live recording of (The) Flying Dutchman performed at the Bayreuther Festspiele July and August 1971. Conducted by Karl Böhm.

"Here is the reissue of yet another version of this work. It has much to commend it. First of all there is that sense of dedication heard in all the live recordings made at Bayreuth; it is in fact the third of four versions recorded there officially ... there's the energetic, vivid, theatrical direction of Bohm, always the most direct of Wagnerians, bringing out all the visceral excitement of the score ... Bohm conducts the single-act version, which has for long been adopted at Bayreuth. ... The recording has the benefit of Bayreuth's excellent acoustics, which were here caught to perfection." — Gramophone
