As a tie-in to Duff Murphy’s music history class The Early and Late Operas of Mozart, Wagner, Verdi, and Puccini, we will be presenting a screening of Ingmar Bergman’s adaptation of Mozart’s opera with an introduction by Duff Murphy.

About the Film:
Ingmar Bergman puts his indelible stamp on Mozart’s exquisite opera in this sublime rendering of one of the composer’s best-loved works: a celebration of love, forgiveness, and the brotherhood of man. The Magic Flute (Trollflöjten) stars Josef Köstlinger as Tamino, the young man determined to rescue a beautiful princess from the clutches of parental evil.
