THE ENCHANTED FLUTE

Program

WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART
Die Zauberflöte

3h with interval

The last production of the season is Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s last opera! One of his most popular works, it has several interpretations, between a Masonic opera, a fairy tale and the fight of the Enlightenment against obscurantism. The choreographer Pierre Rigal insists on the relationship between the high priest Sarastro and the Queen of the Night, rehabilitating the character of the desperate mother. The conductor Ben Glassberg illuminates this masterpiece alongside a cast of up-and-coming young singers.
