I love watching "Mozart" conducting the orchestra. You feel warmth from the singer and the Queen of the Night" BUT you feel HEAT from watching him conduct the orchestra. I love listening to the applause of a great performance.
Yes! The lines in those 17 seconds are what made me love this piece so much. She sings like a bird. That IS music of the night, beautiful, haunting, dark.
You'd be a fool not to avail yourself the opportunity to view this magnificent film. Grab this DVD, grab some popcorn and lots of soda, set aside a night to watch this, and enjoy. It was great today as it was back in the 80's. JMHO...
never noticed it before, but at 1:55 two little girls, obviously captivated by the music, approach just behind Mozart, and an usher draws them back. What a nice, subtle touch there by Milos Forman Such a great movie
i have heard her sing it, and i think she is the second best at it. Diana Damrau just fills her music with such passion and emotion. Its like the notes just flow out of her.
WONDERFUL!!!OF COURSE this scene was for me the first time I saw this aria and it signed my life at the begining of my musical studies.Some years later I saw in live in Teatro alla Scala.I can imagine who is the singer!
The opera was premiered in Vienna on 30 September 1791 according to Wikipedia so it's 218 years ago. I think it still sounds as perfect, powerful and beautiful as then.
Well this premeried 1791, but still it is pretty old! Maybe gunpowder? It looks like fireworks. I know it would look that bright, but I know they had gas lights when Beaucharmis premiered with his PLAY The Marriage of Figaro. It was all cool because it was bright and they had gas lamps. Then Mozart premiered with his Le Nozze di Figaro, later. This was after Le Nozze, so they might of had lamps.
@StArMasteRz She is mean't to be, but one assumes was not included in this scene for reasons of artistic licence. This film, and the play it is adapted from, was never intended to be anything even resembling a biography of Mozart's life. I imagine Peter Shaeffer never dreamed how huge his story of Mozart would become when he penned Amadeus for the stage. There is a very clever episode of The Simpsons which parodies the publics view of Mozart as shaped by this very film.
Despite the innacuracies, I love the movie's staging of it: so dramatic. The queen could be dressed in white to show moonlight. Nightime isn't always pitch black.
I agree. After watching some of the other versions here on YT, the movie presentation does seem "wrong." The Queen should be dripping with vengence, not a fairy godmother mien.
Is it just me, or is this video higher and faster than in the movie itself? Not that there's anything wrong with that - I'm wondering if I'm hearing right, that's all.
@MakBDF by a German country I mean it was an independent German city state which a was also a germen speaking and culture nation. Also they are from the same descendant.
@OyonTheAdept Yes, she is. Incredibly insulting. And there is no way to see whether she is June Anderson or Louisa Kennedy as it says in the remastered CD's of the OST
Could they realy have created a stage set like that in the 1700's? They didn't have dry ice for the smoke effects, and I wonder how they lit up a theatre in the days before electric lights.
Just practice. I love re fa la re la si sol la( la parte in d minor)Even my eight years old son sings that after listening and listening.Well if you love you do.Don't worry be happy. It comes.Give time
y u definitely right , its obvious "de koningin van de nacht" dutch "die königin der nacht" german "van" means "von" in ger nut we dont use 2 say "königin von der nacht"
@alfonso1clarinet Obviamente, los diálogos han de ser traducidos, pero NO las piezas musicales que las acompañan, porque la no traducción de éstas no nos impide que sigamos la trama. Es una auténtica mooooooooooooonstruosidad traducir las letras de las canciones. Y si sabes idiomas, en este caso inglés, te duelen los oídos, porque ni conserva el sentido de la amenaza de la Reina de la Noche a su hija y pierde el ritmo del fraseo musical que Mozart le da. U-N-H-O-R-R-O-R.

My favorite movie ever !!! Tom Hulce was simply superb in it !!!
i love this scene!
i love how he comes up with the idea of the music :D
and her singing is beautiful!
Such great movie.. such great music...
sequence between 1:40 and 1:57 is so beautiful ... mozarts divine music is awe-inspiring , it stunnes me since i can think
è semplicemente FANTASTICO... La scenografia costumi e... la musica... SUBLIME!!!
when it comes to mother's in law they're are great inspiration.
The cinematography from 2:00 to 2:24 really emphasizes the beautiful timing and coordination of the opera singer and the orchestra. Well done!
The best aria!
I love this scene.....wonderful.

Genial és poc ,!!
The greatest scene transition in film since the bone turns into a space ship in 2001: A space odyssey. Milos Forman, thank you!
this is so beautiful it can bring tears to my eyes.
QUE HERMOSO,,CUANTOS NO DARIAN LOQ UE FUERA POR VIAJAR EN EL TIEMPO Y VER A MOZART DIRIGIR EN MISMISIMA PERSONA¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡¡
never noticed it before, but at 1:55 two little girls, obviously captivated by the music, approach just behind Mozart, and an usher draws them back. What a nice, subtle touch there by Milos Forman
Such a great movie
klarynn: The original singer in 1791 was Josepha Weber... the voice in this clip (but not the actress shown on screen) is June Anderson.
Happy Birthday Mozart! You are the best! X
i have heard her sing it, and i think she is the second best at it. Diana Damrau just fills her music with such passion and emotion. Its like the notes just flow out of her.
Oh I'm glad they put in English, it's so clear now... because super high coloratura always yields way to crystal diction.
Amazing aria! Let's see an American Idol finalist sing this! It would probably kill them.
Qué video Dios mio!!!
de la mejor película,del mejor compositor, de la mas extraordinaria aria
WONDERFUL!!!OF COURSE this scene was for me the first time I saw this aria and it signed my life at the begining of my musical studies.Some years later I saw in live in Teatro alla Scala.I can imagine who is the singer!
I really loved this film and opened to me the ways to music
I went to see this in New York one time, it was sublime, magical and awesome!!! :))) I would do anything to see the original opening in vienna
I really liked that movie.
NOTHING can be bigger.
amazing movie!!! and one of the best parts too!
one of the greatest aria ever written
Der Hölle Rache! This transition is BRILLIANT! Love it.
tom hulce did an excellent job of conducting the pieces throughouth the movie..
I laughed when she says "you selfish thing" and eventually switches to Queen of the Night. They match so perfectly!
:) 0:42-0:55 is beautifuuuulll.
i have and i think she is very good, but i absolutely love damraus voice. she fills it with so much energy and emotion
I want to sing like that...and be as good looking as Tom Hulce
@azdb1234 Uwielbiam Mozarta a szczególnie ten fragment.
Dit is geniaal.
I LOVE the transition!
The movie uses a scene from "The Magic Flute: Die Holle Rache Kocht in Meinem Herzen" or what happens if you piss off the Night Queen.
Genius!
0:27 - 0:37
I love this transition! It is made so perfect!
Never gets old!!! :))))
Ah ah ah! Amazing opera, this part is brilliant.
The opera was premiered in Vienna on 30 September 1791 according to Wikipedia so it's 218 years ago.
I think it still sounds as perfect, powerful and beautiful as then.
I love this part of the movie!!
I love it
its awesome:)
:) i adored
@vonspre Amen!

The best moment from the movie
Apparently, only four female singers in the world are capable of singing this aria. Our singer Diddú is one of them.
Despite the innacuracies, I love the movie's staging of it: so dramatic. The queen could be dressed in white to show moonlight. Nightime isn't always pitch black.
the white could easily symbolize the Moon.
but yeah, I agree she looks more happy than vengefulXD
Look at 1:50 - 1:57 that is very difficult to do, to get your singing exactly in line with the music, hitting sharps, Bravo mozart!!!
Well said.
I agree. After watching some of the other versions here on YT, the movie presentation does seem "wrong." The Queen should be dripping with vengence, not a fairy godmother mien.
AMAZING.....!!!

@MakBDF by a German country I mean it was an independent German city state which a was also a germen speaking and culture nation. Also they are from the same descendant.
The notes are higher than in the real movie, and the song is sung faster. Has anyone else noticed?
@OyonTheAdept Yes, she is. Incredibly insulting. And there is no way to see whether she is June Anderson or Louisa Kennedy as it says in the remastered CD's of the OST
Every aria in german is translated to english in the movie, but italian ones are not.
It is sung in english by reknown soprano June Anderson.
Could they realy have created a stage set like that in the 1700's? They didn't have dry ice for the smoke effects, and I wonder how they lit up a theatre in the days before electric lights.
Just practice. I love re fa la re la si sol la( la parte in d minor)Even my eight years old son sings that after listening and listening.Well if you love you do.Don't worry be happy. It comes.Give time
it is in english...but the german version is also very good!
Agreed...but "Sarastro is a Baaaastard" ends forcefully too.
Забавно :))
@zerxolah havent you seen the fifth element?
AMAZING ONLY!!!
I don't get it. Constanze came from a musical family (her cousin was Carl Maria von Weber). Why doesn't her mother get music?
I watch fragments all the time! Mostly this one and the "Papageno/Papagena" clip.
how did mozart die??? was he poisoned? or was it the drink that killed him? i missed that in the movie!
I was talking about the opera singing
y u definitely right , its obvious
"de koningin van de nacht" dutch
"die königin der nacht" german
"van" means "von" in ger nut we dont use 2 say
"königin von der nacht"
I had a good laugh at saliere's facial expression at 2:30
I hope they had fire extinguishers.
what key is this version in?
1:36 to the end is the best part vocally :)
these are dutch subtitles :D
0:34 what is the piece´s name??
i like 0:28-0:33, when he's realizing something amazing
The story of The magic flute has many connections to the legends of the Freemasons. Both Mozart and his father was masons.
I wish i could do that!..lol!
@alfonso1clarinet Obviamente, los diálogos han de ser traducidos, pero NO las piezas musicales que las acompañan, porque la no traducción de éstas no nos impide que sigamos la trama.

0:43 WTF This is a Mozart song??? I honestly didn’t know. To me it was just me of those songs I hear but don’t know he name of or who wrote it.
They did that because the opera is in German and they were all speaking German in real life. It would have been nonsensical otherwise.
I know!!!
omg
Can you tell music by Mozart from that by Salieri?
A Google search for "quiz mozart salieri" will bring you the quiz.
In which language it is translated?? Danish, Swedish.... Swiss German??haha
at the time germant an austria were part of the holy roman empire and austria was a german country
the name of this beautiful opera?
The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte)
how the heck does anyone understand what they are saying?? Or what language its in for that matter??
@polikiliop The Magic Flute
i can do this too! :$
English is my native language, but I studied German and whenever I see Dutch, I always think of German, not English.
