(Edition 1842-1880)-This new publication presents Wagner’s much-loved opera in its entirety with a detailed preface by Egon Voss. The new Urtext Edition replaces the familiar edition by the conductor Felix Weingartner published in 1897 and it was this version that which all later editions were based upon. Throughout its creation both during Wagner’s lifetime and thereafter The Flying Dutchman has gone through many revisions making this new edition essential to any opera lover and a welcome addition to the repertoire.
