I freaking LOVE this part of the opera, I LOVE the guards' aria. So incredible, so mysterious, so strong.

Yes I have always loved this part; despite it being a small part of the opera, it is stirring and memorable. My favourite though I think is Ach ich fuhl's which I think is the key moment of the opera. Watch Gundula Janaowitz from 1964 singing it , in my opinion quite astonishing.

The text is actually taken from the French novel "Sethos" which talks about the Egyptian mysteries and which is one of the source texts which Schickaneder integrated into the opera.

Bach would've been so proud

I love how the knights in armor actually move during the entire aria. Cause in most productions they just stand and sing

the quartet is one of the most beautiful moments in music but it must be sung with sweetness and humanity.

Lo 'staccato' di viole, violini e violoncelli che si incrociano e si rispondono, creando quasi dei contrappunti al quadrato, è uno dei brani di Mozart che più adoro, insieme all'Ouverture del Don Giovanni, e alla seconda parte del Dies Irae del Requiem, dove, pure, c'è un gioco di contrappunti, tra archi e voci, che lo rendono incredibilmente suggestivo. Incredibile il genio di Mozart, in questo come in altri casi. Pensare in che epoca, questa musica è stata scritta... Cioè... cosa c'era, in giro, a quell'epoca... confrontato con questa, musica. Non c'è da stupirsi se all'epoca solo pochi, fossero in grado anche solo di capirla. Per tutti gli altri... erano "troppe note"

Mine too (though, technically, it's not an aria, but a typical chorale).

Brings tears to my eyes, Mozart really got it...

C'est beau ! Petite, cette partie des retrouvailles m'a toujours fait pleurer de joie. "Tamino mein! Pamina mein! Oh welch ein Traum!" Divine.. D'ailleurs, ces chanteurs maîtrisent vraiment bien l'allemand et les paroles sont facilement compréhensibles. Vivent les Parisiens! Vive Mozart!

La richesse symbolique de la mise en scène va jusque dans les moindres détails ! Entre autres la différence de jeu des deux Égyptiens.

Les colonnes. Parfait, je le pense aussi.

the owl is fabulous, so is the King Tut head-gear of the two Armoured Men. The music is too good to believe. How could any person write music this good? It is amazing!

This is actually based on a famous Luther hymn from 1524 "Ach Gott, vom Himmel sieh darein." Bach set a whole cantata to this theme, and Pachabel (of the Pachabel Canon) set it as well. Mozart gives it his personal "spin" in a brilliant way.

The origin of Mozart's composition is said to be Bach's 'Ach Gott vom Himmel sieh darein' BWV741

Che sublime partizione!! Musica di ispirazione “ celestiale “!!

This gives me goosebumps!

plus 'sich den mysterien der Isis' after the hymn (which is based on 'Begierlich in dem Herzen mein', 1410, unknown composer)

Absolutely beautiful! Thank you for sharing this! :)

@vexillum1 Thanx. Wish, there would be more productions like that.

Wow!

at 4:30, the placement of that A is perfect! Not overbearing. I love it

C'est indiqué nulle part, malheureusement: cette video vient d'un enregistrement (DVD chez TDK) à l'Opéra de Paris en 2001: Dorothea Röschmann et Piotr Beczala sont les deux protagonistes principaux ici, direction Ivan Fischer.

I love this! But its strange that Tamino doesn’t even pretend to play the flute, he just holds it in front of him....

Tamino would NEVER have survived the trials without the Königin de Nacht, he should be grateful to her instead of holding those backward views on women.

Nonsense. The whole opera is an allegory. Both "backward views" on women and people of color are based on a literal and non-allegorical interpretation. Study interpretations based on Freemasonry, Rosicrucianism or Alchemy.

I am German, the Opera is in German Language and I still need the French subtitles to understand the words. That I hate on Opera. For me the feeling of the glorious music is corrupted and that is sad.

Frankly speaking, it's quite normal not to be able to (fully) understand opera singing even in one's own language, especially when it comes to longer or higher notes. So the blame is not ALWAYS on the singers, but often on the matter itself.
