Opera in Concert: Mozart’s Magic Flute

Professional Bay Area Opera singers will share the stage with ArtQuest’s chorus and dancers as well as the orchestra for a concert version of Mozart’s most popular opera. The colorful and engaging music of The Magic Flute encompasses all the elements of a good fairytale with rich characters, beautifully drawn by Mozart’s music.

PLUS PRE-CONCERT FUN! Handcrafted Magic Flute character sculptures, made by ArtQuest students, in the courtyard. In the lobby, music and photographs documenting the creation of this production, by ArtQuest students, as they bring this glorious special concert to life.
