Study Day

Professor Simon Keefe (University of Sheffield) presents an In-depth discussion of 'The Magic Flute' in close proximity to a performance of the opera at King's Place. He examines its literary, genre and style-related contexts, performance locations for the premieres, and adjustments made by Mozart to accommodate individual singers. Plus, a detailed study of individual numbers from 'Don Giovanni' (1787), 'Così fan tutte' (1790) and 'The Magic Flute' (1791).
