W. Mozart  Die Entführung aus dem Serail (The Abduction from the Seraglio)

Bel Cantanti is presenting this hilarious comedy, well-known tale about an attempt of the hero Belmonte, assisted by his servant Pedrillo, to rescue his beloved Konstanze from the seraglio of the Pasha Selim. The music includes some of the composer's most spectacular, complex, and difficult arias; notably, Osmin's Act III aria "Wie will ich triumphiren" goes down twice to a low D, the lowest note demanded of any voice in opera. Another highlight, the opera's most famous aria, Konstanze's long and elaborate "Martern aller Arten" ("Tortures of all kinds"). Opera is sung in German with the spoken dialogs. English super titles. Fully stages, in costume. Accompanied by the piano and string quartet.
