Heras-Casado leads «excellent» ‘Der fliegende Holländer’ at the Teatro Real

«Pablo Heras-Casado secured some excellent playing from the house band.  It started so well with an overture that had an irresistible forward momentum, with surging strings and uninhibited brass.  I found his reading on the whole to be well paced, nicely swift and alive to the drama inherent in the score … The quality of the orchestral playing really was exceptional.»

-Operatraveller

«Lo mejor de su producción posterior ya está presente en ella y el reparto del Real, con unas excelentes voces wagnerianas, una dirección orquestal precisa a cargo de Pablo Heras-Casado y un coro impresionante en su desempeño, no hace sino poner de relieve la contundencia de este fortín musical.»
