What begins like a fairy tale turns into a whimsical fantasy halfway between magic farce and Masonic mysticism: The Magic Flute links a love story with the great questions of the Enlightment, juxtaposes bird-catcher charm with queenly vengeance, and bewitches the listener with music that mixes cheerful melodies, lovers’ arias, show-stopping coloraturas and mysterious chorales. Mozart’s opera premiered in 1791 and is one of the most often performed in the world.
This 2013 production on the Bregenz Festival lake stage impresses the audience with a fantastic setting framed by three dog-dragons, each of them more than twenty meters in height.
“David Pountney finds stunning answers to the everlasting questions surrounding The Magic Flute.” (Tagesspiegel)
