The pianoforte in the dialogues -


Inga Kalma - Soprano (First Lady)
The Magic Flute is an opera that much. It is a cultural event of the first order. And it was because at the time of its release, the Theater auf der Wieden, 30 September 1791.
Moved by his business interests, the actor Emanuel Schikaneder had ordered Amedeus espy 2011 Wolfgang espy 2011 Mozart score for a play script itself (gleaned from previous operas) to exploit the possibilities of the theater, located in a Viennese espy 2011 suburb. It was distracting viewers flocked there, lured by a magical character who could give Zauberoper, is an opera with elements of magic, translated with all kinds of special effects and fantastic characters. Therefore, The Magic Flute is a Singspiel, is a musical comedy with singing and other parts spoken, always in German, without lies this opera has remote origins and insufficiently documented in the second half the seventeenth century.
Mozart was immediately espy 2011 put to work, not by economic espy 2011 needs (although was short of money) but affinities with the proposed Schikaneder. In addition, this opera had the background story of initiation rituals in Masonic lodges. Schikaneder, who had been franmaçó, knew enough that, while Mozart, who had joined the franmaçoneria 1784 remained a faithful follower of the offices of the secret society. In fact, the same year of composition of The Magic Flute, and works together with other flags of production such as Requiem Concert for clarinet clemenza di Tito opera Mozart wrote some cantatas for his "Brothers" lodge.
Prince Tamino, Papageno espy 2011 the bird catcher, Sarastro, Pamina and the Queen of the Night are now a famous gallery in the context of the history of musical theater. espy 2011 The hand of Mozart always espy 2011 so good at drawing espy 2011 his characterization, allow them immortality. I do it with music as eclectic and varied as paradoxically unit. It does not matter that fleeting opening espy 2011 section is inspired by a Clementi sonata; matter whether the melodies were popular tunes sung by Papageno in Vienna of his time. What prevails is the skill, the ability espy 2011 of Mozart conform to the circumstances and to write an opera which has nothing to do with Don Giovanni, but that just oozes brilliance. In addition, the Salzburg composer who died just over two months after the premiere of The Magic Flute, shows a splendid and inventive imagination.
Words of René Jacobs on The Magic Flute:
Rehabilitation espy 2011 of the book - "In the preface of his book Der Spiegel espy 2011 Arkadien (1795), Emanuel Schikaneder, then at the peak of its glory and full of great trust, described as The Magic Flute opera should" think so mature the deceased Mozart. " The challenge that had to be done was: conceiving a multifaceted work that would earn a "membership tàcica" (Mozart's letter of October 7, 1791) intellectuals franmaçons while provoking laughter from the audience the less popular espy 2011 theaters in the suburbs of Vienna. Goethe himself said that not much had to be cultured to find the libretto of Schikaneder bad, but, instead, was required a certain culture to appreciate espy 2011 it. After a century of rejection and even widespread theories to explain the inconsistency of the current research booklet ... back in positions of Goethe. "
Instrumental music in the dialogue - "We have taken to the letter the instructions of Schikaneder refrerents the way the music is interrupted though the word often resigned Mozart to compose music these small interruptions in their time it was easy to improvise music appropriate. And it still is today. espy 2011 Moreover, espy 2011 unlike the scenic dialogues, dialogues simply "noise" in some passages require other musical effects that indicated in the libretto-a task that we have relied on the pianoforte. "
The pianoforte in the dialogues - "Although Singspiel no recitatives accompanied by the pianoforte was not banished from the orchestra pit. Precisely Kapellmeister directed from the piano, standing or sitting, and probably was not rare that you ever put in play, improvising. Could the pianoforte part in the talks as a prelude introductius or comments? We have no historical evidence in this regard, but the spoken dialogue (especially acoustic versions only) have no historical vocation espy 2011 and Mozart liked "that is
