1964-67 Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute)
at the New York Metropolitan Opera:
In 1964, the Metropolitan Opera commissioned Marc Chagall to design the
stage sets and costumes for its first production of Mozart’s acclaimed
opera The Magic Flute. One of his favourite plays,
Chagall embraced his designs as he tried to draw parallels between the Bible
and Mozart’s opera. To him, they both shared the fundamental principles
of goodness and truth; “For me there is nothing on earth that approaches those
two perfections, The Magic Flute and the Bible,” he said.
In
1967, when a new production of Mozart’s The Magic Flute opened
at New York City’s Metropolitan Opera, the steady pulse of the opera world was
sent racing. Marc Chagall was 79-years old at that time.
