G - Wagner's romantic retelling of the nautical legend filmed as "a ghost thriller, incredibly gripping, densely atmospheric" (Saarbrücker Zeitung)

"Václav Kašlík goes whole-heartedly for the Romantic jugular - very creditably, too, with lost of dark water, two huge ships, and lashings of spooky effects. …the finest 'traditional' version available." BBC Music Magazine, Proms 2008 *****

"The adaptaion by the Czech director Václav Kaslik...succeeds in gripping the viewer visually as successfully as does Wolfgang Sawallisch musically. Indeed Sawallisch is the reason to investigate this set for he gets gloriously eloquent playing from his wonderful Bavarian forces. No complaints about the soloists either." Penguin Guide, 2010 **/*
