it
about?
The Magic Flute
This classic from the mind of musical genius Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart is the most frequently performed German-language opera of all time. 'The Magic Flute' has been delighting people worldwide for over 200 years with its fairytale figures, the battle of the star-flaming "Queen of the Night" against the mighty Sarastro and, of course, its enchantingly beautiful music.
LA TRAVIATA
The drinking song from this Verdi opera is considered one of the most famous melodies ever written. After the exhilarating rush in the first act, the catastrophe takes its course in typical operatic fashion. The terminally ill Violetta must leave her lover Alfredo due to pressure from his family. Only on her deathbed can they embrace each other once again.
