Reviews are in for The Flying Dutchman

It was a great weekend for Madison Opera. From audience responses to critical reaction to the stream of letters and e-mails we are receiving today, it seems we presented our first Wagner opera at exactly the right time, with a very special cast, chorus, and production crew.

• The Isthmus: "Congratulations are due for this milestone achievement by Madison Opera..."
• Channel3000: "Madison Opera conquers 'The Flying Dutchman'..."
• Culturosity: "'The Flying Dutchman' successfully takes Madison Opera in yet another new direction..."
