The Magic Flute

Mozarts The Magic Flute depicted in the above video is the filming of the play by director Ingmar Bergman. Note the symbolism in the use of language.

The high-end production of The Magic Flute by the Metropolitan Opera is rich in elaborate costumes and set design emphasizing the symbolism of the plays Masonic elements with brilliant artistic expression. Mozart is said to have been a member of the brotherhood of Freemasonry.

Ritualistic, spiritual, magical this Opera can be enjoyed by those who don’t usually appreciate this form of art for the sheer scale, beauty and mystery it portrays. The subtitles throughout the filmed version of the play allows for further appreciation through ease of understanding.
