Maybe that's the reason I loved it so much when I was 11. I still do, but I kept watching a recording of a 1986 Savonlinna Opera Festival version of it in Finnish, even though I couldn't make out half of the things they sung both high and low, even if it was performed in my mother tongue. I just really loved the music and I loved Papageno, the comic relief character, and identified with Pamina.
You left out a message from this work which I believe is very important: Papageno technically failed his trials, and yet he still gets the happy ending he wanted. He couldn't care less about the trials and virtues and all that, he just wants a simple life (and a wife). He explicitly demonstrates how you don't necessarily need to be enlightened to earn a happy ending, and you may want to aim to live a simple life instead.
Thanks for this. We did refer to Papageno failing his trials, yet still getting the happy ending he wanted, but you're correct. The thing with The Magic Flute is that the are endless interpretations that often conflict with each other. There are also so many other issues that we just didn't have time to allude to including the fact that Monostatos appears in blackface, even in so many productions today, and also that Sarastro isn't in fact the most enlightened...Some people nowadays think him a bit misogynistic.
@@ClassicsExplained I didn’t realize that the Monstatos part was originally in blackface. Is there any literature on if it was an art direction choice due to it being in the sun kingdom?

@@ClassicsExplained Yup. There's the racism problem with the Magic Flute. I've seen a Finnish recording of the Magic Flute from 1986, and as a kid I didn't see a problem with the fact that Monostatos was played by a tenor in blackface and ethnic type clothing, but nowadays it feels really wrong. There are even the lyrics "a black man is ugly", when Monostatos is pining for Pamina. I think modern performances of the Magic Flute tend to keep the lyrics intact if they are performing them in the original German but the costumes aim to be non-racial. I think I've seen a picture where Monostatos was dressed up like some Jabba the Hutt type of monster.
After watching this I have decided that Shrek was based off The Magic Flute. Shrek is Tamino, Fiona is Pamina, Donkey is Papageno, Farquaad is the Queen of the Night, and the Dragon is. Sarastro/Papagena. Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
You are doing a fantastic job ! One can literally feel the passion for this project and I am amazed by how much I can learn from you although I consider myself a regular opera visitor. I hope that there will be many more videos to come. Sending you my love from Germany
@@ClassicsExplained And I am so glad that so many great composers came from German speaking countries... this way we can enjoy your German accents to the fullest. ;) Love it !
1:51 I did this play for my opera class back when I was in college/university. As soon as I heard the first song on your video, I got emotional and had all those wonderful memories come rushing back. Thank you for making this video.
I love this channel. You guys are like a breath of fresh air that blows away all of the dust of neglect that has built on classical music due to the fixation on what is new and trendy in musical genres. Keep the videos coming!
I remember watching a version of The Magic Flute in elementary school and my mind was blown. It was a family version by Julie Taymor, who also directed the Broadway sensation of Disney’s The Lion King. I am so inspired and excited to see The Magic Flute this holiday season!
@@ClassicsExplained I was hoping for this episode to be based on Mozart’s The Abduction from the Seraglio because the Janissary chorus was the inspiration of the intro song for Where on Earth is Carmen Sandiego. Also you’ll promise to make Bolero, Pines of Rome, The Bartered Bride and Pastoral Symphony right?
Oh how wonderful. This time you didn't end by advising to listen to the piece, but tomorrow I surely will.... yet again.... I have about 80 versions to choose from. :) Thanks!
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart called himself Wolfgang Amadè Mozart with many variations Baptized as Joannes Chrysostomus Wolfgangus Theophilus Mozart Played with his older sister Maria until she was 18 and married off, died after Mozart and was a teacher for the last few years of her life and many of her piece sadly died with her. And a few of Wolfgang's letters to his sister telling her about how beautiful and wonderful her works are. He also met Bach's son Johann Christian Bach or "The London Bach" when he was about 8 with his father Leopold and a young Beethoven played for him and saw much potential in the boy and wrote many parts in Così fan tutte for an opera singer he hated and he knew that she lowers her head on low notes and raise on high so he wrote many highs and lows so that her head would "bob like a chicken" wrote an entire overture the morning of it's premier a piece that translates to "kiss my @$$" or "lick me in the @$$" wrote "a musical joke" and died on the 7th bar of Lacrimosa in the requiem writing "The day of tears and mourning" before passing on December 5th 1791 at age 35 after spending 4weeks in bed from an illness in Vienna, just 300kilometers (186.411miles) from his hometown of Salzburg "The taste of death is upon my lips. I feel something that is not of this earth" It is said that Antonio Salieri hated Mozart so he poisoned him and many other accusations surrounding his death and sudden illness. Yet he mourned at Mozart's funeral and later taught his son
Antonio Salieri and Mozart were actually friends, alongside the other great Classical Vienise composer Joseph Haydn (who was the teacher of both Mozart and Beethoven). And speaking of Beethoven he studied under both Haydn and Salieri. And now I kinda wanna hang out with them...
Oh, honestly, Mason imagery makes a lot more sense after thinking of the plot in a much more condensed format, dang y’all! Nice catch with the birds btw, look up images of Slavic witchcraft and the tree of life, they’re really bird heavy!
These videos are such a breath of fresh air. Looking forward to working my way through the whole collection. As a "somber clarinetist" and "Mozart was a subversive feminist" tin foil hat wearer, this one made me all warm and tingly.
One of my favorite operas! Wonder how much it inspired "Moon Knight"... 1. A vengeful ruler of the night (Khonshu/The Queen of the Night) 2. Hero sent by said ruler of the night on a quest to defeat a cult leader (Marc Spector/Prince Tamino) 3. Reluctant cowardly comic relief who accompanies the hero, ends up saving the day, and gets a girlfriend (Steven Grant/Papageno) 4. Cult leader who worships Egyptian gods (Arthur Harrow/Sarastro) 5. Ladies dressed like birds who end up with the comic relief guy (Layla el Faouly/Papagena)
Oh dear ! the opera that got me into....err.... into opera..... Quick, get a beer (even though I was just off to bed)…. I think I know a lot about this but I'm sure I will be educated thoroughly still. And have fun watching it. Here we go. :)
Love this comment - thanks so much. We are hoping to get a little more recognition soon because we've got another batch of videos come out imminently :)
I read a comic adaptation of the Magic Flute and than saw it on stage at the Metropolitan Opera. The comic adaptation took some inspiration from the Ingmar Bergman movie because Sarastro is Pamina's father there. Other than that it does stick more closely to the orginal libretto.
Mozart as a yoga instructor made me feel blessed along with the birds that have the heads of Pamina and Tamino. I have some more ideas for videos, too. How about The Tale of Tsar Saltan by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, or Brahms’ Hungarian Dances
Really good episode. The Magic Flute is one of my favorite operas. I recently saw it a few months ago in Des Moines as a surprise birthday gift. It was made by 1927 on a screen with animations of a silent movie. Hope you’ll do Bizet’s Carmen, Puccini’s Madame Butterfly and La Boheme, and Tchaikovsky’s ballets: Sleeping Beauty, Swan Lake and Nutcracker.
Great Channel! I Like all your videos. Hope you will do more Videos about Opera, Verdis Falstaff, Il Barbiere di sigvilia or one of the DaPonte-Mozart Operas.

Yep
Indeed
Cannot tell you how much we appreciate this comment :))
I realize I am kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good website to watch newly released movies online?

The Magic Flute is basically the world's first Disney musical.

wrote an entire overture the morning of it's premier
a piece that translates to "kiss my @$$" or "lick me in the @$$"
wrote "a musical joke"
and died on the 7th bar of Lacrimosa in the requiem writing "The day of tears and mourning" before passing on December 5th 1791 at age 35 after spending 4weeks in bed from an illness in Vienna, just 300kilometers (186.411miles) from his hometown of Salzburg

My god ! I have never understood this before.
I’m with that angel at 1:48 when Mozart dies. Why did he die so young 😥
He became very ill due to varied causes.
And poor Antonio Salieri got blamed.

any chance you could cover Don Giovanni? It's one of my favorite operas, other than Aida.
Sarastro seems like a nice guy.
oooo you should make a video about mozarts requiem
Am I imagining things or was there a Sir Mix-a-Lot reference?
There may have been ;)

Here's the factual Wikipedia article about it: The clarinet is a family of woodwind instruments. It has a single-reed mouthpiece, a straight, cylindrical tube with an almost cylindrical bore, and a flared bell. A person who plays a clarinet is called a clarinetist (sometimes spelled clarinettist).
While the similarity in sound between the earliest clarinets and the trumpet may hold a clue to its name, other factors may have been involved. During the Late Baroque era, composers such as Bach and Handel were making new demands on the skills of their trumpeters, who were often required to play difficult melodic passages in the high, or as it came to be called, clarion register. Since the trumpets of this time had no valves or pistons, melodic passages would often require the use of the highest part of the trumpet's range, where the harmonics were close enough together to produce scales of adjacent notes as opposed to the gapped scales or arpeggios of the lower register. The trumpet parts that required this specialty were known by the term clarino and this in turn came to apply to the musicians themselves. It is probable that the term clarinet may stem from the diminutive version of the 'clarion' or 'clarino' and it has been suggested that clarino players may have helped themselves out by playing particularly difficult passages on these newly developed "mock trumpets".[1]
Johann Christoph Denner is generally believed to have invented the clarinet in Germany around the year 1700 by adding a register key to the earlier chalumeau, usually in the key of C. Over time, additional keywork and airtight pads were added to improve the tone and playability.[2] And oh ja, this singspiel opera is a Masonic fairy-tale propaganda.
