The History of The Magic Flute

The Magic Flute was Mozart’s final opera before he died at the age of 35 on 5 December, 1791. The premiere, just two months before his death, in the humble Vienna Theater auf der Wieden was a huge success. Mozart personally conducted the orchestra for the opening night. He intended the piece for everyday, working-class audiences rather than his usual crowd of wealthy aristocrats.
