From Papageno’s pipes and bells to that high note in the Queen of the Night’s aria, “The Magic Flute” is one of Mozart’s greatest works. It was also his last opera.

The Atlanta Opera has adapted it for younger audiences and has been taking it to schools throughout Georgia. This is through their Atlanta Opera Studio Tour, which showcases singers early in their careers

This weekend, they will perform four shows open to the public at the Center for Puppetry Arts.
