THE CAST

The Opera Society Of Wash
ington presented its first opera
in English translation last
night at the Lisner Auditorium
offering Mozart's Magic Flute"
in the w. H. Auden-Chester
Kallman version to the first OF
three completely sold out
houses.
Now that the first step has
been taken in letting audiences
in on the arcane mysteries OF
opera plots, one can hope that
others will follow.
What was lost in Subtletles
such as match Of music to
vowel sound was more than
compensated for by gain in
comprehension. And doubt
that more than a few hardy
souls were seriously disturbed
by the temerity of the trans
lators in disrupting Mozart's
key relationships (by rearrang-
ing the order of the numbers
in the second act) to achieve
a more logical dramatic pro-
gression of events.
It may be blasphemous to
say so, but I think there can
be little doubt that the Auden-
Kallman arrangement is more
satisfactory on the stage than
the traditional Schikaneder-
Giesecke.
The translators have done an
excellent job. Their English
text is witty, graceful and en-
inently singable, and it seems
to me that they more closely
approximate a vein of fantasy
than did the original perpetu-
ators of what is admittedly a
jerry-built libretto.
How on earth Mozart man
aged to conjure up such heav-
enly music to such miserable
stuff as was served up to him
by Schikaneder and Giesecke
is an unfathomable mystery.
Fortunately for us. he did.
Combine this miracle of a score
with a transformation of the
libretto by such fine poet
craftsmen as Auden and Kali
man and you have a potentially
transporting operatic expert
ence.
This potentiality was not. un-
fortunately, fully realized. but
for reasons that had nothing to
do with the opera-in- English
question.
Kudos? The production mer-
its quite few-Paul Callaway's
fine musical direction, an ex-
cellent Pamina in Mildred
Allen, a touching Papageno in
William Murphy, a surprisingly
accomplished Papagena in Pat
ricia Brooks (who is new to
Washington, three charming
pages, a fine-sounding chorus
and imaginative costumes by
Mellen, for example.
But there were too many
things that were not as they
should be.
Perhaps the most damaging
was simple miscasting. Chester
Watson's great talents were
wasted as Sarastro because he
does not have the basso pro-
fundo quality so essential to the
