Description:
The third act of Wagner's opera 'Der fliegende Holländer' opens with the 'Entr'acte' and 'Sailors' Chorus': an introduction including motifs associated with the sailors and with the girls' spinning-song. The Norwegian sailors are happy, singing to celebrate their return ('Steuermann, laß die Wacht!') and then dancing, as the girls come with baskets of food and drink.
Dutch arranger Gerard Posch transcribed this well-known 'Entr'acte' and 'Sailors' Chorus' for Male Choir with accompaniment of a Symphonic Band.
