About this concert
OPERA
Die Zauberflöte
The Magic Flute
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756 – 1791)
Opera in two acts
Sung in German.
Libretto: Emanuel Schikaneder
Premiere: 1791 in Vienna
Prince Tamino is no hero in the classical sense of the word: when the Three Ladies entrust him with the task of freeing the Queen of the Night's daughter from the clutches of the mysterious Sarastro, he is all but enthusiastic. But when he sees a picture of the young Pamina, he is suddenly filled with renewed motivation and falls in love with the princess's image. Together with the quirky bird catcher Papageno, he sets off on a treacherous journey, equipped with a magic flute and bells.
Intendant Uwe Eric Laufenberg brings a new production of Mozart's magic opera to the stage as part of his final directing "Trilogy" ("Der Sturm", "Die Zauberflöte" and "Falstaff").
PREMIERE: 3 December 2023

Recent Reviews
The COUNTESS in PIQUE DAME (2022-2023):
"Perhaps that's why deep female voices are more enchanting. Romina Boscolo, in the role of the bald Countess (not a witch but icy-cold) [...] Boscolo, who almost stops time in her grand nostalgic aria [...] vocally, she is at the peak of her emotionally captivating performance." (Frankfurter Rundschau, Wiesbaden, 2022)
"Romina Boscolo in the role of the protagonist takes ownership of the scene of her memories, sending shivers down the spine with her deep and mysterious voice, while the director binds her to a wheelchair, almost immobile." (Der Opernfreund, Wiesbaden, 2022)
