Magic Flute
Listen
A dreadful lurgy did not prevent us from listening to CBC Saturday Afternoon at the Opera, which featured one of our favourite operas – Mozart’s Magic Flute.

Company
Constance was particularly happy today – Prince Tamino joined her to listen, after all he is named after the prince in this opera!
In the story, Tamino gets chased by a dragon, makes friends with a bird-catcher, goes through magical trials to test his worthiness, and ends up with a princess! Our Tamino is still looking for a dragon!

What a sweet time you all must have had today, cozily listening to the opera together while nursing yourself of the lurgy. May you feel much better soon.
Thank you very much – it was a very pleasant time, and not energetic at all which is what was needed!
hope you feel better soon. Keep warm and drink lots of tea – and more music.
Tea, music and a cosy fire – all are helping, also the helpful wishes of friends like you, and the encouragement of the Hittys!
Who could resist loving an opera that has magic flutes, dragons, a prince and princess. I have no doubt that if and when Tamino finds his dragon…he will tame it…and befriend it.
Tamino has a slightly more bloodthirsty end in mind for his dragon saga, but we shall see…there don’t seem to be terribly many dragons around here they must have gone extinct in our area.
hmm, no dragon but it looks like he found a princess! What charmers they both are.
Nope, no dragons (yet!) Constance has hopes of having a companion at last for her operatic interests!
This is a charming photo. I am sorry that the Lurgy is hanging on, but imagine the opera soothed the spirit. Get well soon dear woman.
Thank you very much…indeed this particular opera was charming and had a happy ending for the good guys…some operas are not as soothing!
