Un capitano olandese può sbarcare dal suo vascello fantasma solo una volta ogni sette anni per cercare una donna che annulli la sua maledizione giurandogli amore eterno. Approda in un porto norvegese e lì trova proprio quella donna: Senta. Wagner estrasse le carte vincenti nella sua rivisitazione, anche in qualità di librettista, dell’antica leggenda. Non appena si leva il sipario, la musica è cullata dalla voce delle onde, un suono che cresce sempre più avvolgendo parola e personaggi. La vicenda di sacrificio e morte si dipana a perdifiato tra monologhi furiosi, vertiginosi duetti, cori travolgenti; accompagnata da una grande orchestra che funge da coprotagonista del dramma. Nel 1843 Wagner diresse la prima rappresentazione al Königliches Hoftheater di Dresda.

A Dutch sea captain is only allowed ashore with his ghostly ship once every seven years to find a woman who may lift his curse by swearing eternal love to him. He sails into a Norwegian port and finds just the woman: Senta. Wagner pulled out all the stops in his retelling, also in the capacity of librettist, of the ancient legend. The music is rocked by the sound of waves as soon as the curtain rises, a sound that grows louder and louder wrapping itself around each word and character. The story of sacrifice and death unfolds breathtakingly among raging monologues, dizzying duets, rousing choruses and accompanied by a large orchestra that acts as a full-fledged player in the drama. Wagner conducted the premiere at the Königliches Hoftheater Dresden, Germany, in 1843.
