(Egon Voss quoted from the foreword of the new Der fliegende Holl nder vocal score) Original version and 1842-1880 version The original version of Der fliegende Holl nder dates from 1841. Wagner at the time a completely unknown Kapellmeister in France trying to get a foothold in Paris saw the opportunity for a stage work that would meet the fashion at the Paris Opera of performing several short works one after another. Der fliegende Holl nder conceived in 1840 and composed in 1841 seemed to him suited to the purpose. In 1841 even when Wagner no longer counted on a success in Paris he still held to the conception of a one-act opera and offered the work to German opera houses under the title of Romantic Opera in One Act and Three Scenes .

Ferdinand Leeke.
Ferdinand Leeke (1859-1923) was the creator of a serial of paintings showing scenes from the operas of Richard Wagner.These images provide much more than a simple illustration of Wagner's music dramas. Like no other artist Leeke managed to create the exact atmosphere that Wagner had established by his compositions.The works by Leeke are exhibited in several well-established art-museums, as for example the Neue Pinakothek in Munich and the Richard Wagner Museum in Bayreuth.In 1899 the prominent Bavarian printer Franz Hanfstaengl made copper plates from the original pictures. In a highly complicated procedure Franz Hanfstaengl produced the printing plates to transform Leeke's images into photogravures.These photogravures printed from the original plates are assorted in an exclusive folder that is produced only in a limited edition of 970 pieces worldwide.Every handpulled picture an originalThe art of etching and handcopper prints is regarded as one of the oldest and finestprinting techniques.In case of etching the motif is etched by the artist directly into the copperplate, with heliogravure the image has been engraved by using a complicated and extremly difficult photographic and handicraft procedure.Printing is done on heavy handmade-paper. Today, as 500 years ago, the copperplate is still carefully re-inked by hand and then cleaned with wide-meshed gauze balls, for only when the ink lies deep in the impressions the print will possess the velvety tones and fragile lines so characteristic of old, valuable engravings.The print is produced by pressing the plate under the pressroller with a pressure of around 16 tons. For every single print the entire procedure has to be repeated.To a greater extent than with wooden engravings, the artistic quality of etchings and copper engravings / heliogravures is dependent on the handicraft skills and the aesthetic sensitivity of the printer.This special way of printing has been done by Hanfstaengl publishers since 1833. Through the precise application and remova! of ink, the carefully-considered choice of paper and the use of the hand press, the printing specialists create a precious original with every page.

A work which offers most interesting aspects also for studying, yet it is so difficult to perform that only a very correct and thoroughly edited score can provide the orchestral conductor with the proper presentation, this is what Wagner himself determined on 24 May 1860, when with his third attempt he finally had found the proper form for the overture of the Flying Dutchman. Indeed, he succeeded in writing a forceful concert piece which anticipates the story of the opera in a concentrated form: a dramatic Dutchman theme with thunderbolt and storm in Allegro con brio - and in contrast Senta's love theme in Andante, d minor against f major with the resulting conflicts and tensions. It's good that with the present edition the conductor can count on a very correct and thoroughly edited score!

The music of Richard Wagner can be daunting to beginning pianists, but this collection offers an accessible approach to the famous nineteenth-century composer's works. The arrangements focus on Wagner's melodies and style, presenting manageable excerpts from the more abstract works in simplified keys and with suggested fingerings. More than 30 pieces consist chiefly of selections from Wagner's operas. Highlights include the thrilling Ride of the Valkyries from Die Valküre, the second of the four Ring Cycle operas. Other pieces from the epic musical series include Siegfried the Hero from Siegfried and Song of the Rhine Daughters from Götterdämmerung. The collection also features pieces from Parsifal,Tannhäuser, The Flying Dutchman,Rienzi, Lohengrin, and Tristan und Isolde, as well as other works. Each selection features a brief Introduction that provides historical context and, in some cases, suggestions for performance.
