The film will be introduced by Bay Chamber Artistic Director Manuel Bagorro and co-founder Thomas Wolf.
"This scintillating screen version of The Magic Flute showcases Ingmar Bergman’s deep knowledge of music and gift for expressing it cinematically," said the Strand. "Casting some of Europe’s finest soloists—Josef Köstlinger, Ulrik Cold, Håkan Hagegård, and Birgit Nordin among them—the director lovingly recreated the baroque theater of Sweden’s Drottningholm Palace to stage the story of the prince Tamino and his zestful sidekick Papageno, who are sent on a mission to save a beautiful princess from the clutches of evil."
