Above: Guillermo Sarabia as the Dutchman
Audio-only performance of Wagner’s Der Fliegende Holländer performed at The New York City Opera in 1977, conducted by Julius Rudel, with the following cast:
Holländer – Guillermo Sarabia
Senta – Johanna Meier
Daland – Ara Berberian
Erik – Richard Taylor
Mary – Diane Curry
Steuermann – Jerold Siena
Listen here.
Ms. Meier, Ms. Curry, and Mr. Berberian were all great favorites of mine, and I saw Mr. Sarabia’s Dutchman twice: once in Houston and later in Springfield, Massachusetts. Mr. Siena sings the Steersman beautifully.
