Волшебная флейта by Mozart, С (2023/2023), Режиссер Eric Perez,, Дирижёр Nicolas Chalvin, Opéra de Reims, Реймс, Франция

Mozart's ultimate opera, The Magic Flute is the most astonishing of all for its mixture of genres and styles, from fantastic tale to philosophical fable, from Viennese comedy to virtuoso opera. It is the story of Tamino, a young foreign prince who, on the orders of the Queen of the Night, ventures into the kingdom of the mysterious Sarastro and faces terrible trials for the love of Pamina. It is also the story of Papageno, a mischievous bird catcher who only dreams of eating, drinking and… finding his Papagena! In this new production, Eric Perez's lively staging highlights the magical aspect of opera and the youth of the characters by projecting them into a playful universe with acid colors. Imbued with a twirling lightness, Amadeus' masterpiece, whose spoken parts have been translated into French, becomes an initiatory tale, served by the vocal and scenic performances of a fine cast of young singers. Something to delight all generations!
