Wagner Der fliegende Holländer from the Teatro Real in Madrid, with Kwangchul Youn as Daland, Samuel Youn as the Dutchman, Ingela Brimberg, Nikolai Schukoff, Kai Rüütel and Benjamin Bruns, conducted by Pablo Heras-Casado, recorded live 23/12 and now on Culturebox, The presence of Kwangchul Youn and Samuel Youn (not realted) made this performance particularly moving Kwangchul Youn is an Elder Statesman, a Wagnerian of commanding presence and great depth, while the younger Samuel Youn represents the next generation In the context of this opera, this role reversal brought added piquancy to the inter relationship between The Dutchman and Daland, The Dutchman has roamed the seas for hundreds of years, and in the process has learned things no mortal should eperience Daland, with his fixation on worldy goods, cannot comprehend the metaphysical What will happen to Daland after he loses his daughter, his greatest treasure ?

[…] event is artificial and unconvincing. We are given some singers, in an opera that goes best when it has some singers, exclamation point. Amplification notwithstanding, the voices are often covered by Gamba and orchestra. The two good-looking sisters are saddled with desiccated Medusa hair (costumes and makeup are by Clara Sullà), black tendrils for the Strong Woman and silver ones for the Girly Girl.
