Disarming Music
‘An original way to make a declaration of love or to put the children to bed.’ (Le Monde)
Papageno’s magical melody
DAS KLINGET SO HERRLICH
The Magic Flute
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
KV 620, 1791
In Mozart's Musical Comedy ‘The Magic Flute’ the fowler Papageno and the young Prince Tamino are sent out by the Queen of the Night to free their abducted daughter Pamina. To survive the adventure, they receive a magic flute and a magic carillon. Yet in the first dangerous encounter, their sound is disarming. The attackers turn away and tremble beguiled: ‘That sounds so pretty, that sounds so fine! Never did I hear and see anything like it!’ To sing along!
