W. A. Mozart - Die Zauberflote Aria No. 14

[XXXDustinEchoesXXX]

This song is on the Voyager golden record.

[777wallaby777]

1:53 the best part for me :)

[qadririzvi]

Amazing voice and what a genius to write music of such beauty!!

[MrCapitaoamerico]

Muito louco esse Mozart ...

[SKRIBLSKULL]

"there's simply too many notes" LOL Amadeus is CLASSIC

[apostolic366]

before she gets to the arpeggios, is she a little sharp? like, at the top of the riffs? i mean, she's wonderful, it just kinda sounded a tad sharp there.... please tell me if it's my ear, her, or if everyone else is just flat when they do it. :)

[ijobrien3]

@apostolic366 yes. just a bit.

[ijobrien3]

@apostolic366 the best performance as Queen of the Night is probably by cheryl studer. she absolutely does the music justice.

[Maxweckl]

@apostolic366 your right, i heard it too, she's not perfectly on pitch there

Die Zauberflöte

[classicalsrock]

you always want to make it louder, even when the speakers are on max, so sad :( I would play this on top of the biggest mountain in the world, with the biggest speakers in the world, just so i could hear it.

[rdennislee]

This track is on Amadeus Soundtrack Volume 2

[TheMuchogato]

I ordered the soundtrack off amazon, this was sadly absent from the list.

[860anthony]

to find a human being to sing this aria in the first place is a miracle. to have conceived and written such a masterpiece is the other. beautiful.

[lillielfo]

perchè non segni il nome dell'interprete della regina della notte?Grazie. elfo

[mivano328]

Incredible that someone can do that with their voice. I would love to be able to but this is a God given talent!

[lucgodzillafan]

This woman's voice is a million times better than Lady Gaga.

[plagueofangels666]

@lucgodzillafan WHAT! I can only give one thumbs up?

[bigapplebucky]

@lucgodzillafan Understatement.  There is nothing like a trained voice.

[classicalsrock]

@lucgodzillafan of course it is, lady gaga dosent sing opera!!! she sings pop, any1 with a respectable amount of knowledge would know that.

[Nrthnmaverick]

In the movie the scene was done in English. The Magic Flute by Mozart was intended to be the Rocky Horror Picture Show of the day, a parody or spoof that appealed to the common person, no lofty ideals just plain fun.

[TUTIIxFABULOUSxYAY]

is this english or german? :) thanks you for replying :)

[HerrWarja]

@TUTIIxFABULOUSxYAY German

Soprano June Anderson sang this for the 1984 movie Amadeus. The actress we see in the Queen of the Night costume is a European actress who only mimicks an opera singer but her voice is being dubbed by June Anderson, whose career highlights were in the 1980's.

[direwolf404]

it seems that my heart jumps a little bit more each time the soprano reaches those high notes

[ciuatu84]

bellissima....

[thesir27]

easily the most badass opera aria ever

[congui36]

Me duele la garganta solo de pensar en esa nota

[PsychoTomHoang]

Why isn't this the song on the CD that comes with the movie? It's something completely different.

[AdaCordella]

But yes, he plays there. You have to listen carefully :-)) It's from the opera The Magic plete, end of the film.

[sjinouck]

my mother, who is a soprano, told me that this is so, so difficult to sing.. but it is so beautiful!

[lanalana777]

Ja, schoen :)

[metallicafan666]

ich liebe diese Aria! =D

's ist sehr schoen!
