One of the most original composers ever living, Richard Wagner found his unique style perhaps while working on Flying Dutchman, his opera inspired by natural phenomenon of storm (and not of looming, as one may think; looming is an atmospheric refraction effect which, strictly talking, initiated the legend of a ghost ship, to which the piece owes its title). Sea related scenes inspired not only Wagner – think of Aivazovsky's paintings or Moby-Dick, – and all these works are brilliant. To every rule there is an exception, but not this time: Flying Dutchman is a genuine masterwork. Find sheet music for Die Frist ist um here: The Flying Dutchman.
