Wagner Der fliegende Holländer Royal Philharmonic Orchestra Lionel Friend conductor Gweneth-Ann Jeffers Senta James Hancock Holländer Jeffrey Lloyd-Roberts Erik Karl Huml Daland Anne-Marie Owens Mary Richard Roberts Steuermann Philharmonia Chorus Concert Performance Sung in German with English Surtitles London Lyric Opera is proud to present a concert performance of Der fliegende Holländer by Richard Wagner featuring the Royal Philharmonic Orchestra and the Philharmonia Chorus conducted by Lionel Friend. This is a rare opportunity to hear a performance of Richard Wagner's first masterpiece. Conducted by one of the UK's most distinguished Wagnerians. "In its majestic but lyrical sweep, its text-responsive handling of texture, not to mention its exemplary pacing and structural grasp, Friend's is one of the best-conducted performances of Götterdämmerung to come my way for a long time."
