W.A. Mozart's "The Magic Flute": Act I, Scene 1

Clarion Opera
Act I, Scene 1 from WA Mozart's Die Zauberflöte (Magic Flute)
In this scene: Tamino, a handsome prince, is lost in an unknown land and is fleeing from a serpent. He prays to the gods to help him before fainting. The Queen of the Night's Three Ladies find Tamino lying on the ground and, completely smitten by his good looks, they each sing his praises while trying to convince the other two to leave. After some time -- and quite a bit of frustration -- they decide that they will all leave together.
Tamino - Robin Tritschler, tenor
First Lady - Nola Richardson, soprano
Second Lady - Sarah Brailey, soprano
Third Lady - Kate Maroney, mezzo soprano
The Clarion Choir & The Clarion Orchestra

Bellissima regia regia classica tradizionale con tecnologia ❤❤❤❤❤

I can see the director did totally appropriate and clever things with this marvelous opera. So many directors make a mess of the time, place, and costumes - the Clarion Company is excellently sung and acted. Hope to hear more of them.

Had the pleasure of seeing this live and it was riveting. With any luck, they will post more of the performance, or make it available for purchase.
