@serRudyll Mozart was pretty up front about the fact that he changed his mind about the plot at half time, as it were- the Queen really was the good guy at first, and then he realized this was a perfect Masonic vehicle. It makes it really interesting as a director, trying to make it make sense- is it a change of perspective, masculine v. feminine, wtf else? lol.
I have to say this version, and trans., kind of upset me. Makes no sense.

Joseph Kaiser could be Tom Hollander's brother, as they look alike.

Breathnach is the Gaelic word for 'man from Wales'. 'Ni bhionn Breathnach gan beirt' , means that there is never one but there are two. Perhaps at a time and a place when the Walsh were very numerous. You could be right about 'kuhn', but it sounds a tad weak... Maybe its the hymbook we are reading from...

you´re absolutely right, and this isn´t the only place where the dialogue/plot is a bit loopy and not very logical. i like it that fry´s libretto has managed to erase some of this, but obviously they felt they couldn´t change the structure of the piece, seeing as music and plot development are intricately interwoven...
