James Gaffigan conducts his second Wagner opera after an "intense" version of Tristan und Isolde that demonstrated his "passionate mastery of the score". This production features a cast of seasoned Wagnerian voices, led by the young American bass-baritone Nicholas Brownlee as the Dutchman, a role he is performing for the first time in Europe. His incarnations of Wotan, Donner, Amfortas and Hans Sachs in Leipzig, Munich, Frankfurt and the Bayreuth Festival testify to his meteoric Wagnerian career. Elisabet Strid is one of the most sought-after Sentas in opera houses around the world (she recently sang the role for 60 performances in Covent Garden). The rest of the cast includes bass Franz-Josef Selig (Daland) and tenor Stanislas de Barbeyrac (Erik). Willy Decker, well-known for his outstanding productions of La traviata and Peter Grimes, sets the curse of the Dutchman in a simple but enormous stage design dominated by gigantic, practically empty rooms, with a masterly interplay of light and shadow that accentuates the psychological aspect of the drama.
