Papageno-Papagena Duet

[MozartsBloodline]

What a great piece to sum up the life of Mozart, the greatest. He was a papegeno in his personal life, but Tamino whenever his pen touched paper to write any piece of music.

[joltzkrieg]

Heh... wish finding the perfect girl and winning her was this easy -_-

[jonrivera]

It's music like this I wish I existed in THESE times as opposed to...*regurgitates*...now.

il grande mozart insuparabile!!!!!

[TheMisscassafrass]

Sang this like two weeks ago in choir (: favorite part .. " kinder lein KINDER LEINNN" lol so cute

[825y]

Has there ever been such a genius like this, except for the Oxford don Louis Carol?

[JEFMcolorau]

Genial!

[mtavares92]

I had one year of german..

can't understand jack of what they're saying heh..

[SaiChester]

@mtavares92 Oh you're not really missing out on anything, the content is basically rubbish :D

[dafahaguyanu]

incredible.

[manco82]

If Mozart was a songwriter today, he'd have 70 no. 1 singles already.

[ntclinton]

The other majesty of this whole opera, is that Mozart was on deaths door when he wrote it, and would die shortly after the premiere. In those days, there werent a lot of second chances like running to the doctor.

[Rumiton]

These two are terrific, and it's great that they seem to be enjoying it as much as we are.

[AlancrackSumano]

This is at The Met in NY

[calmik85]

what a wonderful interpretation!

[wolflover8765]

just wonderful to hear!

[vegclasma468]

*time not Tim

[vegclasma468]

@MauricioAE1 I think it would be awesome if he was born at this Tim (btw he was born in 1753)

[wasteofspace1234]

The guy who plays Papageno in this performance is just outstanding. The best I've ever seen.

[gloriagaga1]

I love this work operates

[einrun123]

godddd!!!!!! iam learning the language

[herbertharevalo]

My daughter is 2 years old now and this is her favorite after pocoyo. Thank you for uploading this masterpiece

[rockmenowamadeus]

When I get married I want a costume wedding where I am Papageno and my wife is Papagena.........my mother is indeed the Queen of the Night.

[mbdulka]

Best Opera: Eva!

[masteronline]

Papapa.. pa!!

[DarkMorguet]

@TsukiyomiDoitsu Hahaha another hetalia fan!!! I tooootally agree with you! xD

[ElfMaidenArcher]

omg we sang this at my school!

[frostmaiden85]

ok i'm a mozart fan but i do think there was a furry lurking in his soul :D

[CJPlumblossom]

i can imagine mozart running around "pa pa-ing" other women....HAHA. wait, my statement seems to have double-meaning here. haha.lol mozart!<3

[mariojau]

My grandson Abdiel who is 16 months specifically requests Beethoven's fifth or Papageno before going to bed. You may think I'm lying but I would love for everyone to see him move the baton as he watches Leonard Bernstein direct Beethoven's masterpiece or while listening to Papageno! I am marveled at the music and at him listening to it.

[BeachballOtaku]

I went to a performance of this with my friend two days ago. During this song I leaned over to her and went 'P-p-p-pokerface" and the entire row behind us burst out laughing.

[MauricioAE1]

thank god mozart born in 1700 and not in our time

[TheMauthe]

magistrale come era lui

[californiaengineer]

aww...love at first sight! :)

[ducrozet74]

i hate the woman playing pagagena uughh horrid

[beethovenlovedmozart]

It saddens me sometimes that people don't acknowledge that Mozart was WITHOUT a doubt the greatest composer of all time. How can it even be questioned? Dead at 35 and he has masterpieces in every musical genre of his time.

[bluehaze1029]

@beethovenlovedmozart

Yes, but that is an opinion. It depends what type of music you like. I like classical, but I wouldn't consider it "superior" besides the fact that it is more complex and requires mastery of music and a high level of understanding to achieve playing or composing.

Today, anyone can be talented. You don't even have to work at it. At least classical composer weren't famed for looks!

Wow, that was supposed to be a fair review..... oops! Guess I am a little biased...

[HealeyIRA5]

tempo is too quick, barely, but noticeably...

[Kaorurin]

Cuanta gracia!!! los adoro!!

[LaMoscaTV]

I can't believe that there are 21 bad points for this MAGNIFICENT video!

Excuse me if I wrote something wrong xD I speak spanish but is for the understanding of what i'm saying (:

[nestorcadario]

@LaMoscaTV No se preocupe, su inglés se entiende. En cuanto a los votos, en youtube, como en cualquier otro sitio, anda dando vuelta un montón de mocosos incultos que votan o escriben cualquier cosa. Saludos desde Córdoba, en la Argentina.

[LaMoscaTV]

@nestorcadario a ok yo creia que era un fiazgo para el ingles xD pues si tienes razon, y pues la verdad los puntos no importan realmente, pues tenga negativos o no esta musica es hermosa pese a quien le pese (raperos ¬¬) :D

[shinananona]

n___n!

[jellybear3927]

which production is this? i wanna buy it on dvd, i love diana damrau as queen of the night but i also love this version of the papageno/papageno duet. is it the same one?

[andoreako]

@jellybear3927 Unfortunately it's not :( I love diana damrau as well. This one has luciana serra as the queen but she's pretty awesome too :D oh and this is the metropolitan opera version. it's pretty old... from the early 90s i think but i think you can still buy it

[mosesbenmaimon]

mozart one of the best musicians of all of times, the other two are beethoven and bach

[nestorcadario]

@mosesbenmaimon Please, don't forget to Vivaldi, Schubert, Haydn, Brahms, Mendelshonn, Chopin. I think that all is a question of likes. Forgive my elementary English. I'm Argentine and my mother tongue is the Castilian (Spanish of the Southamericans) Regards.

[Meemzeesh]

for some reason i always giggle.

[xMusicIsMyPassionx]

@Meemzeesh I always giggle at this too. That's okay though. It's opera buffa. It's supposed to be funny. xD

[der084]

Sublime



[yamiko193]

I like the dancing Papagena!

[MegaYada]

Mozart loved stage. How lucky we are to have had such a miracle of a composer

[Lilithnights]

Yeahh que super dueto!!!

[RainerPoppe]

"Ei, das ist echt nicht schlecht, das hat was erotisches, aber, ich kann ich mich erinnern, daß es mich schon mahl voll mehr erwischt hat, weiß aber nimmer bei welcher Interpretation..."

Ganz arg liebe Grüße in Jesu Nahmen,

Rainer Poppe

[eddyjr66]

Why hasn't anyone remarked that Papageno is Manfred Hemm? An absolute darling:)

[anabelachaves]

@eddyjr66 yes, i was exactly looking for the name of the singer. i loved him, the performance in the entire opera (i have the dvd) was absolutely fantastic.

[eddyjr66]

Why hasn't anyone remarked that Papageno is Manfred Hemm? An absolute darling:)

[elavellaneda]

meraviglioso

[qw3rtydud3]

This was beautifully acted... very very convincing. The soprano sounds slightly insecure with her tone sometimes though

[yafazudametalero]

they looks pretty good great acting :)

[catherinesteph]

I refuse to believe that 21 different people disliked it... I think it was one very determined and angry (as well as uncultured) person :) hats off to Mozart

[marcowins]

maravillosooooo

[elavellaneda]

magnífico!!!

[alicesap]

Rispondi a questo video...

[Dali6153]

Ik vind het een leuke ,

lieve en speelse duet .

Prachtig .

[cipotlar]

too cute (>_____<)

[pepamicro]

Mi hija de quince meses me la pide una y otra vez. Y prefiere esta versión a las otras que corren por YouTube, incluyendo Terfel-Bartoli.

La mira entera, embobada, y cuanmdo se acaba el vídeo pide más. Hasta canta afinando como puede: pa-pa-pa-pa :-)

Esto es magia. "Unser liebe kinder schlenken... zu liebe kleine kinderlein...!" ah!

[proletkulteisler]

Es asombro que algo tan aparentemente sencillo encierre tanto. Es...Mozart. Gracias drrmoriarty.

[lucianapb10]

Sooooo nice Strange.... Well, Mozart no???

[SatoTM3]

@lucianapb10 your sentence structure makes no sense

i suggest you study some english before attempting to write it

[lucianapb10]

@SatoTM3 And i suggest you to shut up your mouth because you don't know me neither my english level. Let me explain for you poor brain what i meant to say. NICE STRANGE is because is soooo wonderful and so strange at the same time. Mozart makes me feel like this. That's why i love this aria. Because it can make me feel a lot of feelings at the same time (Well, Mozart makes me feel like this) .... So, again I say ... SHUT UP YOU IDIOT AND TRY TO ASK ME BEFORE MAKING THIS KIND OF COMMENTS.

[rosarossasenzaspine]

delizioso pa pa pa

[fanchette122]

joli et dire que sharky et moi on chantait ça de bon coeur

[fanchette122]

magnifique merci Wolfgang.....le meilleur opéra de Mozart et mon préféré

[ANonymus112194]

My favorite part of "The Magic Flute!" Love it sooooooo much! :)

[PrincipessaDellOpera]

no denying it. i love this duet.

[juliaw4]

pa pa pa

[lokilla0608]

QUE COSA MAS TONTA NO CREEIS? ¬¬

[Jarajofife]

@lokilla0608

Sí, así es. Papageno es una especie de Sancho Panza, el equilibrio ridículo, viulgar del príncipe Tamino, lleno de nobleza y altos ideales, como Don Quijote, y Papagena es su "chica". Una pareja tan grotesca tiene que reflejar su personalidad en la música, de otra forma la obra fallaría narrativamente. Pero lo mejor es que Mozart aun escribiéndoles una música casi infantil con esa introducción silábica tontorrona no pierde ni pizca del encanto que tiene toda la ópera.

[ShintaBattosayX]

este dueto es el mejor que eh visto de esta parte de la flauta magica :D

[KikinaGR]

me encanta este dueto...jeeee tan divertido y tierno

[bobzillagrr]

is this the david hockney designed set does nayone know ?

[1623maria]

this song is so cute

[jameslucjan]

This is how to do it. It annoys me when people take Mozart uber seriously and end up making it boring. This is how it should be (I feel).

[danutpopescu1]

superb!!!!!! sexyand funny! thank you for posting it, or as MOZART WOULD SAY IF HE WOULD BE YET ALIVE "DANKE SEHR SCHON"!!!!!

[Tholomaios]

Wow! Of all performances I have seen on YouTube, this is the one with the best acting and directing.

Knowing something about bell canto I am also impressed they sang with such a quality, while moving/dancing/acting and even carrying Papagena / being carried on Papageno's arms. Great!

[who3697cares]

One of the strangest of all operas, but still one of the best.

[moonlight293]

I love Papageno! xD He's just so awesome!

[bookkeeper57]

Birds fall in love in Mozart's musical retelling of The Magic Flute (a fairy tale).

[ElectricDeity]

@bookkeeper57 Half-birds, half-humans

[AngrySockProductions]

no it's a costume

[Gulasch2702]

this is mozart! This is the best

[1985OMD]

Wunderbar!!!!

Splendiferous!!!!

Exquisito!!!! A human being must see this before dying.

[muvea]

¡qué maravilla y qué preciosidad de interpretación, hasta se me saltan las lágrimas!

[IvyAntimonio]

I loooove papageno & papagena!!!!

the best song of love ever written!

[skata123456789456123]

lol, i dont listen to this kind of stuff, so i dont anything, someone posted this on his facebook wall, so i watched it... in the beggining, the "pa-pa-pa-pa"thing had me laughed my ass off.... i thought it was some kind of comedy, but it was not finally...lol hahahhaha

[ironicallysatirical]

@skata123456789456123 this is totally supposed to be comic relief during this opera! papageno is the comic in the opera! i'm glad that you caught that it was humor! i bet you'd like more if this "stuff" as you look into it!

[IvyAntimonio]

@skata123456789456123: Ok, it is comedy... but it's extremelly sweet, also. That's why I'd never laught.

I think you´re not able to appreciate "this stuff", sorry.

[abandeli]

linnintek

I totally agree. I watched this opera in Rio de Janeiro, in 1994, sung in Portuguese. Since everybody was able to understand the whole piece, the interaction between the music and the audience was perfect. This final meeting was a magic moment which I could never forget. Many people around me were crying at the end of the aria. If we think that this was also one of the last things Mozart put on paper, it gets even more powerful.

[IvyAntimonio]

@ abandeli: Me too... It's kind of adictive! I've listened to it the whole Smoking day!

[Ballack933]

Pa PA pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa papageno

Schickaneder wrote just a good libretto.

[Chonch51]

Whoever wrote this libretto was a genius. I mean I have that "Pa, Pa pa pa" Stuck in my head now.lol.

[Sophia048]

I disagree. I think only a genius like Mozart could take such a confusing plot, or the most ridiculous names in the history of opera, and make something as unforgettable as Die Zauberflote out of it. No other composer would have been able to handle this libretto.

[Chonch51]

@Sophia048 Well, I'm convinced.

[linnintek]

The final meeting of Papageno and Papagena is the best moment of the opera and one of the most beautiful moments in the history of art, not only because of the music itself but also because of the joy it brings to the audience. It's an ubnforgetable experience to watch this masterpiece on stage. It's magic. Thanks, Mozart

[Sabine58200]

einfach Hammer

[mrlocuelo]

Eso no quiere decir que no seas una chica espectacular... Ya sabes quien eres ;)

[mrlocuelo]

Aunque no hayas ido a la ópera todavia, al menos aqui tienes un cachito ;) ¡Un beso hamster depilado!

[sarastro1825]

MOZART LLENA MI CORAZON DE DICHA

[GarcioBass4]

Mozart.....thank you

[ASeasonedWitch]

Sweetness.

[Spjungen]

My favorite duet of all time.

[TeodorMolochov]

My most favourite performance.

[bamf27]

Hemm is by far my favorite Papageno <3

[Friendquiney]

@bamf27 Manfred Hemm...favorite Papageno: I agree! What company made this DVD? Who is the Papagena?

[fantasopera]

@Friendquiney Papagena is Barbara Kilduff .. ;)

[Intioso]

@Friendquiney This DVD was recorded by Deutsche Grammophon. It features The Metropolitan Opera Orchestra and Chorus conducted by James Levine. The set design is by David Hockney. And Papagena is performed by Barbara Kilduff.

[Intioso]

@Friendquiney

[violinistx100]

@Intioso AND Kathleen Battle as Pamina and Luciana Serra as the Queen, we must not forget them :)

[mrlocuelo]

La puesta en escena, y la interpretación son de las mejores que he visto, pero al vídeo la falta la parte en la que Papageno quiere suicidarse, porque la vida le ha negado a Papagena, y los tres ángeles le sugieren que use su carrillón mágico... ¡Por le resto, repito, soberbio!

[Traumteba]

wundervoll...klassik bewegt!

[iomibffe]

haha lo estoy biendo en classe de civica y etica y lo quize ver otra vez xD

[Gukumatzkukulkan]

q bienn es muy linda esta parte la verdad me recuerda la pelicula amadeus

[bennettgirl24]

That some day soon we hope to see! That some day soon we hope to see! Pgena: Pgeno! Pgeno: Pgena! Pgeno! Pgena! Pgeno! - ( whole song in English )

[bennettgirl24]

sweet and dear, sweet and dear, sweet and dear, a life with children sweet and dear, a life with children sweet and dear! Pgeno: First comes a little Pgeno! Pgena: Then comes a little Pgena! Pgeno: Then come a little Pgeno! Pgena: Then comes a little Pgena! Pgeno! Pgena! Pgeno! Pgena! Pgeno! Pgena! Pgena: Will there be room for all the little children? Pgeno: Yes, there'll be room for all the little children! Pgena: A room for all!... That some day soon we hope to see! Pgeno! Pgena! Pgeno!...

[snaplesugar]

Thank you for the translation. The one I had found was incomplete ^^

[bennettgirl24]

Verse: Pgeno: Here at last now i have found you! Pgena: Yes at last now i have found you! Pgeno: Will you be my love, my darling? Pgena: Yes i'll be your love, your darling! My Love My Darling, My Love My Darling! (vice versa) Pgeno: Joyfully now, forever more! Pgena: Joyfully now, forever more! Pgeno: Blessed our life is now beginning! Pgena: Blessed our life is now beginning! Both: And with love will be together, and with love will be together, a life with children sweet and dear.......

[JericClage]

I like both opera and musical, among them "Die Zauberflöte" and "Rent" ... it's stupid to compare them, since they are a different kind of art with a different target audience. None should underestimate Larsson, though. Still, Sondheim made the greatest musicals. Watch Puccinis "La Boheme", it's a beautiful piece and the connection to Rent is obvious. I prefer "Turandot" though. And I have to admit that I like "Die Entführung aus dem Serail" better than "Die Zauberflöte"

[94wellinton]

because you chulitlee pealho sister names aplle whinting names ester fitiosll

[Lujzaadel]

papageno is soooo cute

[SpintoSopranoSexyYea]

I watched this in one of my classes at school, love this duet!

[alexdevil8]

it's two different Styles, different worlds and taste.This is just wonderful, and you might not understand because it's german and not in english.

[angeltears98]

Rent = Musical

this is opera. big difference o-o

[REBECCAtheSOPRANO]

Because this is art and Rent is not.

[dromeda13]

This is a classical opera, with beautiful music! That is why people go to see die Zauberflote!

[oxutmioxkx]

because its a classical piece and perhaps some people understand it? i dont know

[PsychicOtaku182]

Perhaps, sir, you should try watching Puccini's La Boheme? It is, after all, what your precious little musical "Rent" is based off of. People go to see Die Zauberflote for various reasons. I personal watched it for the music. Mozart was talented, if a bit of a text-book composer. Some people, funnily enough, can speak German, and thus, understand it perfectly. Please don't be rude, I personally can't see the appeal of Rent myself. I suppose it comes down to personal preference.

Yours,

Psychic

[PsychicOtaku182]

By the way, yohei, they're singing about getting married and having lots of little papagenos and papagenas!

[ElisabettaVS]

Who are the singers? And where was it performed?

[JustAPrayer]

The singers are Barbara Kilduff as Papagena and Manfred Hemm as Papageno. I don't know where it was performed though.

[ElisabettaVS]

Thank you ^^

[Mozeroscar]

i love the pedaling of the voices ta ta ta taaaaaaaaaaa, sublime mozart! :'D

[FrenkPmli]

io avrei fatto leggermente piu lento, però è sublime ( magnifici a cantare, a recitare un po meno)

[gecko1986]

es ist das höchste der gefühle..

Bravo!!!

[Extasis10]

[lucioscp]

this is sooooooooo IMORTAL,I LOVE MOZART FOREVER

[goadh]

ayy que voz mas horrible tenia el que hacia de papageno :S

Y papagena es clavada a mi profesora de sociales... xDD

Y no os metáis con el mayor genio musical de la humanidad que wagner es bueno, pero no tanto

[Calaf120]

solo miralo, jugando con sonidos, que le pasaba, pa pa p...imitando aves, que falta de inspiración ...........pero Wagner fue un hito el escribio todas sus operas

pero bueno, hay que admitirlo fue un prodigio pero hasta ahi,

[Calaf120]

se demuestra la inmadurez de mozart

en esta parte de la opera

duuu lastima, prefiero a Wagner

[uffizzi19]

inmadurez?...si fue la ultima opera de el, estaba en el pleno dominio de sus recursos musicales¡¡¡ y entrando al dintel de los estertores de la agonia...ja ja ja ja

wagner construyo su palacio con el monumento labrado por Mozart. eso lo reconocia el mismo...porque le negaras al mas grande genio musical su grandeza?

[paganini0804]

exelente respuesta

[Fuliginosus]

I wonder if Lady Gaga was inspired by this when she wrote "P-P-P-P-P-P-P-P-Pokerface."
