Die Zauberflöte

Jste vášniví scifisté? Tato opera bude pro vás jak stvořená! Že je Mozartova nejoblíbenější opera plná kouzel a zednářských symbolů? Pro obyvatele Vídně v 18...

Are you a passionate sci-fi buff? This opera will be perfect for you! That Mozart's most popular opera is full of magic and Masonic symbols? It certainly was for the people of Vienna in the 18th century, but when a theater director like Miroslav Krobot takes over its direction, we may be in for an unconventional but all the more interesting story. And also a trip to space. With the help of a magic flute, the talkative bird Papageno and three mischievous little Genies, Tamino searches for the beautiful Pamina, who has been kidnapped from her mother, the Queen of the Night, by the powerful Sarastro. This is how Mozart's opera itself begins, but the story began many years earlier on a hibernating spaceship that ended up in orbit of an unknown planet due to a malfunction. The crew moved to the surface to spend a number of years trying to gain control of the ship. As the years progressed, the split between the crew members deepened, culminating in the death of the captain. However, both camps continued to attempt to gain control of the spacecraft. However, this task can only be fulfilled by a new generation. Even lovers of Mozart's music will not be disappointed, they will be treated to the virtuoso arias of the Queen of the Night, the lyrical numbers of the couple in love Tamina and Pamina, as well as the cute Pa-pa-pa duet of Papagena and Papagena, and as a bonus, they can glimpse into the realm of fantasy and sci-fi in our epic production. -fi and perhaps discover a new passion for yourself. Premiere: April 13, 2022 in the Janáček Theater as well as the cute Pa-pa-pa duet of Papagena and Papagena, and as a bonus, in our narrative production, they can in turn look into the realm of fantasy and science fiction and perhaps discover a new passion for themselves.

Our destiny is not inscribed in the stars, but within ourselves.

The new Magic Flute will be the first opera production by the excellent actor and director Miroslav Krobot, whose time at the Dejvice Theatre has been a great era for that institution. It was with the Dejvice ensemble that he encountered Mozart´s most popular opera for the first time and performed it, with his own arrangement, with great success in 2003. What will his Brno production be like? The Magic Flute is a story of hope in a time of dramatic division. It is a story with a happy ending. We shall draw inspiration from the diversity of Mozart´s music and the comedic potential of the libretto with the aim of creating a production that appeals to viewers through its music and acting. We would like to treat it as something from the original genre of fantasy, rather than as a fairy tale or mystery.  The story concerns Tamino, who is searching for Princess Pamina with the help of a magic flute and a talkative bird-catcher named Papagena. It is based on the singspiel tradition, where singing alternates with the spoken word, and is full of philosophy and references to Masonic symbolism, as well as humour and of course Mozart’s charming music in particular. Although the creators of The Magic Flute intended it for less sophisticated audiences at the suburban Schikaneder Theatre, the composer wrote unique musical numbers for his characters, including the virtuoso part of the Queen of the Night, which is the highest peak of every coloratura soprano’s art, and the lyrical arias of the lovelorn couple, Tamino and Pamina, as well as Papageno and Papagena’s cute Pa-pa-pa duet.

Unser Schicksal liegt nicht in den Sternen, sondern in uns selbst.

Die neue Zauberflöte ist die erste Operninszenierung des herausragenden Schauspielers und Regisseurs Miroslav Krobot, dessen Wirken am Theater in Dejvice eine ganz eigene Ära war. Dort begegnete er auch erstmals Mozarts populärster Oper und brachte sie mit seinem Ensemble aus Dejvice in einer eigenen Adaption mit großem Erfolg im Jahr 2003 auf die Bühne. Und wie wird seine Brünner Inszenierung aussehen? „Die Zauberflöte ist eine Geschichte von der Hoffnung in Zeiten einer dramatischen Trennung. Es ist eine Geschichte mit glücklichem Ausgang. Wir wollen uns durch die Vielfalt der Musik Mozarts und durch das komödiantische Potential des Librettos inspirieren lassen und eine visuell, musikalisch und schauspielerisch attraktive Inszenierung einstudieren. Statt auf der Ebene des Märchens oder des Mysterienspiels möchten wir uns eher in der eigenwilligen Welt des Fantasy-Genres bewegen.“ Die Geschichte des Tamino, der mit Hilfe seiner Zauberflöte und des schwatzhaften Vogelfängers Papageno die Prinzessin Pamina sucht, geht aus der Tradition des Singspiels hervor, wo sich Gesang und gesprochenes Wort abwechseln, sie ist voll der Philosophie und der Verweise auf die Freimaurerthematik, kann aber auch mit jeder Menge Humor und vor allem mit Mozarts anmutiger Musik aufwarten. Wenngleich die Zauberflöte von ihren Schöpfern für das bodenständige Publikum in Schikaneders Vorstadttheater bestimmt war, hat der Komponist für seine Figuren einzigartige Musiknummern geschrieben – sei es der virtuose Part der Königin der Nacht, ein Höhepunkt der Kunst eines jeden Koloratursoprans, die lyrische Arie des Liebespaares Tamina und Pamina oder das putzige Pa-pa-pa-Duett von Papageno und Papagena.

Deutsch

Tamino hledá za pomoci kouzelné flétny, upovídaného ptáčníka Papagena a tří zlobivých malých Géniů krásnou Paminu, kterou unesl od její matky Královny noci mocný Sarastro. Tak začíná samotná Mozartova opera, ale ten příběh měl počátek o mnoho let dříve na hibernační vesmírné lodi, která kvůli poruše skončila na oběžné dráze neznámé planety. Posádka se přenesla na povrch, aby tam strávila řadu let snahou získat kontrolu nad lodí. S postupujícími roky se prohluboval rozkol mezi členy posádky, který završila smrt kapitána. Oba tábory však pokračovaly v pokusech získat kontrolu nad vesmírným plavidlem. Tento úkol však může splnit až nová generace. Ani milovníci Mozartovy hudby nepřijdou zkrátka, čekají je virtuózní árie Královny noci, lyrická čísla zamilovaného páru Taminy a Paminy, stejně jako roztomilý Pa-pa-pa duet Papagena a Papageny a jako bonus mohou v naší výpravné inscenaci nahlédnout na oplátku do říše fantasy a sci-fi a třeba tak pro sebe objevit novou vášeň.
