Richard Wagner - Romantic Opera in Three Elevations - Music and Poetry by Richard Wagner!
The Dutchman is a cursed, a driven, an outsider. Richard Wagner got to know the figure of this homeless man through Heinrich Heine, who, however, told the romantic story with his typical irony. Wagner, on the other hand, was not interested in Heine's frame story, which put the Dutch material at a distance. Wagner immersed himself in the story of the mysterious sailor and created his first opera about the man's search for the woman who saved him.
Wagner's opera, written in 1841 and premiered in Dresden in 1843, is, after the preceding RIENZI, which stylistically followed the Grand Opéra, a turning to the tradition of German romantic opera by Weber or Marschner. Despite this orientation towards the zeitgeist, the work anticipates Wagner's further development as a music dramatist. And for the first time, Wagner's life theme of redemption through love in death is at the centre of his work.

Info: Deutsche Oper Berlin
On November 7, 1912, the Deutsches Opernhaus was inaugurated with FIDELIO and, in the following decades, served as a stage especially for Puccini's and Wagner's works. The house has remained faithful to the democratic ideal of a citizen opera after its destruction in World War II: Fritz Bornemann's new building, opened in 1961, is intended as a framework for a modern music theatre, which can be experienced from all seats as a total work of art.
