To do this, I will investigate the fantastic worlds of two operas premiered by the same opera company, both with libretti written by Emanuel Schikaneder: Der Stein der Weisen oder Die Zauberinsel (1790) and Die Zauberflöte (1791). David J. Buch’s seminal book Magic Flutes and Enchanted Forests (2008) explores the intertextual threads of magical ideas in Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte, that is, how librettists and composers translated and reprocessed magical themes. I will draw on Buch’s comparison to show how these intertextual connections can be read for their broad cultural resonances. In this paper, I will first establish the connections between Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte in plot and in music. Then I will show how the later opera diverges from its predecessor and discuss how it manages to diminish the polarity of rationality and irrationality considered central to Enlightenment thinking. Ultimately, I argue, Die Zauberflöte facilitates its audience’s access to Enlightenment values by magical means.

    STILL NO REST for the REQUIEM: an ENIGMA RECONSIDERED by David Schildkret

    STILL NO REST FOR THE REQUIEM: AN ENIGMA RECONSIDERED by David Schildkret (This essay was originally presented in 1993 at the University of Rochester as part of a lecture series on mysteries. It was revised and republished for a 2006 performance of the Mozart Requiem by the Mount Desert Summer Chorale.) The brothers Grimm could not have conceived a better tale than the one surrounding the composition of Mozart's Requiem. Almost immediately after the composer's death in 1791, it became known that he had been working on a Requiem Mass, and there were rumors about the curious circumstances under which he came to write it. Here are the main points of the familiar story: A mysterious stranger presented Mozart with an unsigned letter commissioning him to write a Requiem. As Mozart labored feverishly on the piece, his health declined and he became obsessed with thoughts of death. He believed that he was being poisoned and that he was writing his own funeral mass at the behest of a being from the other world, in the form of the unknown messenger. Mozart left the Requiem unfinished at his death and the task of completing it eventually fell to Mozart's pupil, Süssmayr, who is responsible for the version of the work most often performed today. This fantastic tale has been the subject of inquiry since at least 1826, when the publisher Johann André declared it a "fairy-story." The greatest mystery, the identity of the anonymous patron, was dispelled in 1964 when Otto Erich Deutsch discovered a document which conclusively proved what had been suspected for some time: Count von Walsegg, a wealthy nobleman and composer manqué, had secretly commissioned the work so that he could perform it as his own composition.

D’où me vient depuis mon plus jeune âge le sentiment d’être en terrain connu ? Pourquoi sa musique est-elle évidemment celle que je souhaite adresser au néophyte autant qu’au connaisseur ? C’est ce que j’ai réalisé en découvrant la relation unique qui le lie avec les sœurs Weber. Lorsque Mozart compose ses premières pages pour Aloysia et le rendez-vous manqué de leur tournée en Italie, il s’inscrit dans un art du bel canto encore très empreint de la pyrotechnie baroque. Mozart aime le spectacle. Il joue avec la typologie vocale de la jeune Aloysia qui lui permet d’offrir au public des vocalises flamboyantes, des suraigus sensationnels. Si nous retenons souvent cette utilisation extrême de la tessiture, nous savons au fond de nous que l’essence de son art est ailleurs : dans l’affect. Qu’est-ce qui nous fait fondre dans ces lignes que nous mémorisons parfois après une écoute seulement ? L’évidence du sentiment. Lire entre les notes et donner à entendre le théâtre, comme note d’intention du compositeur, voilà où se place le défi de l’interprète. Par notre rencontre avec les sœurs Weber, femmes et dédicataires ayant tellement compté dans sa vie, nous tentons de tracer un portrait de Mozart amoureux.

    The House Composers of the Theater Auf Der Wieden in the Time of Mozart (1789-91)1

    The House Composers of the Theater auf der Wieden in the Time of Mozart (1789-91)1 DAVID J. BUCH Some of the most important theatrical music in Europe was produced at the Theater auf der Wieden in suburban Vienna in the years 1789 to 1801. Beginning with the immensely popular Die zween Anton oder der dumme Gärtner aus dem Gebirge in July 1789, Emanuel Schikaneder produced one successful singspiel after another. The most successful of these were quickly staged in other European venues, both in the original German and in translation.2 Yet, until recently, we have known only a single opera from that period, Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte. Because scholars have not studied this repertory,3 a myth of singularity for Mozart’s singspiel has dominated the secondary literature. But Mozart’s opera was in fact the fourth in a series of fairy-tale singspiels based on texts associated with Christoph Martin Wieland. And the music of Mozart’s singspiel is firmly rooted in a unique style developed at the theater by a group of talented composers who interacted with Mozart, both learning from the master and influencing him in turn. Another myth about this theater has also persisted in modern literature, namely, that the music was of an inferior quality and that the performances were rather crude. While there is one derisive review of a performance at the Theater auf der Wieden by a north German commentator in 1793,4 most contemporary reviews were positive, noting a high standard of musical performance. In his unpublished autobiography, Ignaz von Seyfried recalled performances of operas in the early 1790s by Mozart, Süßmayr, Hoffmeister etc., writing that they were performed with rare skill (ungemein artig).

A consideration of over 1500 opera reviews from close to thirty periodicals, however, paints a more complex picture. In addition to a fascination with the supernatural, composers were drawn to a variety of libretti, including Biblical and Classical topics, and considered the application of recitative and other conventions most historians have overlooked because of their un-German heritage. Despite the variety of approaches and conceptions of what a German opera might look like, writers from Vienna to Kassel shared a common aspiration to develop a true German opera. The new language of concert criticism found from specialized music journals like the Allgemeine musikalische Zeitung to the entertainment inserts of feuilletons like the Zeitung für die elegante Welt made the operatic endeavor of the early nineteenth century a national one rather than a regional one as it was in the eighteenth century. ii Copyright 2010, Kevin Robert Burke iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS First, I would like to offer gratitude to all my colleagues, friends, and family who supported me with encouraging words, a listening ear, and moments of celebration at the end of each stage.
