    The Met Opera Live in HD "Die Zauberflöte" {WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART}


    June 10, 2023

    The Met Opera Live in HD "Die Zauberflöte" {WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART} has been rescheduled for June 10, 2023.  This sublime fairy tale was written for a theater located just outside Vienna.  The story is told in a singspiel (“song-play”) format characterized by separate musical numbers connected by dialogue and stage activity, an excellent structure for navigating the diverse moods, ranging from solemn to lighthearted, of the story and score. The composer and the librettist were both Freemasons—the fraternal order whose membership is held together by shared moral and metaphysical ideals—and Masonic imagery is used throughout the work. The story, however, is as universal as any fairy tale.

    Cost:  $25/$20/$15
