Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute) Singspiel in Hungarian and German with Hungarian, English, German subtitles

“I've captured a terrific storm of elements and of hearts which gradually calms to Brünnhilde's magic sleep,” Wagner on the score of Die Walküre, in a letter to Ferenc Liszt.

On Christmas 1931, Hungarian Christmas premiered with the theatre's greatest singers, conducted by the composer.
