This comprehensive, user-friendly, up-to-date critical guide considers the opera in a variety of contexts to provide a fresh look at a work that has continued to fascinate audiences from Mozart's time to ours. It serves both as an introduction for those encountering the opera for the first time and as a treasury of recent scholarship for those who know it very well. Containing twenty-one essays by leading scholars, and drawing on recent research and commentary, this Companion presents original insights on music, dialogue, and spectacle, and offers a range of new perspectives on key issues, including the opera's representation of exoticism, race, and gender. Organized in four sections - historical context, musical analysis, critical approaches, and reception - it provides an essential framework for understanding The Magic Flute and its extraordinary afterlife.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Atlantic Books","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46445026312343,"sku":"9781108426893","price":9314.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781108426893.webp?v=1769132506","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/the-cambridge-companion-to-the-magic-flute-9781108426893","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
