  • Der Stein Der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte
    Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Volume 12 | Issue 1 Article 3 Magic and Enlightenment auf der Weisen: Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte Mercer Greenwald Bard College Conservatory of Music Recommended Citation Greenwald, Mercer. “Magic and Enlightenment auf der Weisen: Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zaouberflöte.” Nota Bene: Canadian Undergraduate Journal of Musicology Vol. 12, no. 1 (2019): 30-45. https://doi.org/10.5206/notabene.v12i1.8145 Magic and Enlightenment auf der Weisen: Der Stein der Weisen and Die Zauberflöte Abstract This paper probes how the rational and the irrational interact in Enlightenment operatic plots, and explores the effect of this interaction on the Viennese public. 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.

  • 'The Philosopher's Stone': Mozart's Newly Discovered Opera

  • 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.

  • 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.

    ___________________________________________________________________________ 2 MUSIKSTUNDE mit Trüb Donnerstag, 20. 9. 2012 „Hölzerne Worte, magische Bretter: Emanuel Schikaneder zum 200. Todestag“ (4) MUSIK: INDIKATIV, NACH CA. ... SEC AUSBLENDEN Emanuel Schikaneders Werkverzeichnis liest sich wie ein deutscher Zeitschriftenladen: „Der Spiegel von Arkadien“, „Der Stern aus Samarkand“, „Die Zeit der Weisen“ - fehlt eigentlich nur noch „Die Bunte von Bethlehem“. Schikaneder hat mit vielen Komponisten zusammengearbeitet, darunter auch mit sich selbst. Alle sind heute vergessen, außer Mozart natürlich. Mit dem jungen Beethoven plante der Prinzipal „Vestas Feuer“, einmal mehr eine raunend-mystische Zauberoper mit komischen Einlagen; aber was Mozart noch inspirierte, sagte dem knorrig-pragmatischen Beethoven nur Bahnhof: Er fing zwar an zu komponieren, brach dann aber ab; und schlug sich lieber später mit der Menschengeschichte „Eleonore“ beziehungsweise „Fidelio“ herum, ganz ohne magisches Tralala. So wurde, nach Mozarts Tod 1791, dessen Schüler und Assistent Franz Xaver Süßmayr zu Schikaneders Hauskomponisten – da bekam dieser immer noch einen Hauch von Mozart, aber nicht dessen mitunter schwer erträgliches Genie. Süßmayr soll im Hause Mozart wirklich „Männchen für alles“ gewesen sein, außer Kompositionsschüler des Meisters: Er kopierte Stimmen, verwaltete sekretarial die Geschäfte des kränkelnden Mozart, blätterte ihm die Noten um, als er in der „Zauberflöte“ das Hammerclavier schlug, und komponierte auf Bitten von Constanze Mozart das Requiem zu Ende, nachdem der alte Hexenmeister verschieden war. Angeblich soll der 25-jährige Süßmayr Constanze auch als Lustknabe gedient haben, aber das ist mehr als zweifelhaft. Gesichert ist, dass Schikaneder sich den Ersatz-Mozart für sein Bibel-Panorama „Moses oder Der Auszug aus Ägypten“ krallte, und danach für den „Spiegel von Arkadien“, erneut ein Potpourri mit Zaubertränken, Opferritualen, Liebesverwirrungen, ausweglosen Situationen und natürlich Happy- End.
