Episode Synopsis

Later this week, the IU Opera and Ballet Theater returns to the Musical Arts Center present The Magic Flute, an opera by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart set to a German libretto by Emanuel Schikanader. In this episode of the IU Classical Connections Podcast, we decided to collaborate with 3 IU music scholars who are well-versed in the art and the lore of the Magic Flute: Doctoral Music Theory student Mitia d’acol, Doctoral Musicology student Miguel Arrango-Calle, and of course, our very own IU Classical Connections Vice President and Doctoral Musicology Student Mingfei Li, who will be giving the pre-opera lectures for The Magic Flute this month.
