"Le Vaisseau fantôme (Der Fliegende Holländer)" by Richard Wagner is an opera in three acts that was written in the early to mid-19th century. This work combines dramatic music with a haunting narrative that revolves around themes of love, redemption, and the supernatural. Wagner's opera explores the tale of the cursed Dutchman, who is doomed to sail the seas indefinitely until he finds a woman who will love him faithfully. The story unfolds with the character of the Dutchman, a ghostly sailor bound by an eternal curse, seeking a way to end his suffering. He meets Daland, a Norwegian captain, who offers a warm welcome and hopes to establish a familial bond between the Dutchman and his daughter, Senta. Senta, captivated by the haunting legend of the Dutchman, feels a powerful connection to him. As the drama progresses, she faces a choice between her loyalty to the Dutchman and her previous engagement to Erik. Ultimately, Senta's love and commitment lead her to sacrifice herself, jumping into the sea to join the Dutchman in his eternal fate, highlighting the themes of love's redemptive power and the struggle against destiny.
