Tenor Robert Watson Triumphs in Chicago Lyric's Dutchman

The Lyric Opera of Chicago opened its 2024-25 season with a "soaring" production of Der fliegende Holländer. According to the Chicago Sun Times, as Erik, Robert Watson stood out even in an outstanding cast:


"The Dutchman’s rival for love is Erik, sung by Robert Watson, an exciting tenor of remarkable heft, who shows us a hapless and vengeful odd man out when it comes to his dream for a life with Senta."



Bravo Rob!
