To the rhythm of Mozart's sublime music, The Magic Flute tells the story of young people in search of love and enlightenment in a dreamlike world of trials and mysteries. Fairy-tale adventures, playful pranks, romantic encounters and initiation rites are interwoven in an exciting story that will delight the young and the young at heart.
Luminous and poetic, this 7th Midsummer Mozartiade production is staged by Eric Gobin and conducted by Gabriel Hollander at the helm of the Orchestre Royal de Chambre de Wallonie. Aimed at audiences of all ages, this show is the ideal choice for anyone wishing to try opera for the first time. It features a cast of young Belgian and international opera artists who lend their talents to Mozart's final masterpiece with both finesse and fantasy.
While Mozart had intended all his earlier operas for gilded court theatres full of wig-wearing aristocrats, he wrote this, his last, in 1791 for a popular theatre packed with amateurs from all strata of Viennese society. More than two centuries later, his unique blend of the serious and the comic, the individual and the universal, the musical and the theatrical rekindles its magic every time.
The plot ? On a magical moonlit night, Prince Tamino awakens with the heroic mission of freeing Pamina, the daughter of the Queen of the Night, from the evil hands of the tyrant Sarastro. With the gift of a magic flute and the help of a new friend, Papageno, who is more garrulous than brave, our young prince sets out on his quest. The two travelling companions soon discover that few things are as they seem, not even day and night.
