	Der Schauspieldirektor - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Mozart wrote the opera as his entry in a musical competition sponsored on February 7, 1786 by the Austrian Emperor Joseph II at the Schönbrunn Palace in Vienna.
		It has been noted that the character and scale of the overture are similar to those of the overture to Le Nozze di Figaro, which was written at the same time and premiered later the same year.
		The plot of Der Schauspieldirektor mainly concerns the woes of an impresario as he deals with a troupe of performers, especially the feisty prima donnas ("Ich bin die erste Sängerin!

	Lawfully Wedded Operas - August 22, 2006 - The New York Sun
		But they combined two of them: "Bastien und Bastienne," written when Mozart was 12 (yes, 12), and "Der Schauspieldirektor," or "The Impresario," written when the composer was an old man of 30.
		As for "Der Schauspieldirektor," the Festival did not get around to doing that until 1976, and had last staged it in 1991.
		Both operas are examples of "singspiel," the Germanic tradition that Mozart apotheosized in "The Abduction from the Seraglio" and, especially, "The Magic Flute." We don't have really famous music from either "BandB" or "Der Schauspieldirektor," except for the overture to the latter, one of Mozart's C-major rousers.

		Simon van der Geest made his debut at the 'Nederlandse Operastichting' in 1966 as Tamino in 'Die Zauberflöte' of Mozart.
		Simon van der Geest sang during the last years of his career especially character roles, with which he was very successful.
		From one of the recordings, which he was very devoted to, you can hear the following fragment, a live recording of Mozart's Der Schauspieldirektor, the trio from this, together with the sopranos Cristina Deutekom as Madame Herz and Wilma Driessen as Madame Silberklang.

		Mozart wrote the Overture in 1786 as the opening movement of the one-act comic opera, Der Schauspieldirektor (The Impresario).
		He was especially interested in being a successful composer of opera, which would enhance both his reputation and his pocketbook, so the commission for Der Schauspieldirektor was especially welcome.
		The libretto, by Gottlieb Stephanie the Younger, who had written the text for The Seraglio four years earlier, is a burlesque in the form of an audition held by a theater director, in which the participants are two sopranos and a tenor.

		Mozart’s singspiel Der Schauspieldirektor (The Impresario) is a musically delightful and comedically clever little piece, even though most listeners only know it for its engaging overture.
		With a libretto by Emanuel Schikaneder, this piece apparently was performed by Vienna’s Theater auf der Wieden as one of a group of fairy-tale operas--the first being The Philosopher’s Stone in September, 1790, and the last being Mozart’s The Magic Flute, in September, 1791.
		There is virtually no evidence that Mozart had anything to do with the composition or performances of The Beneficent Dervish, but the recording’s producers suggest that he must have heard it and perhaps was influenced by it in some way while considering music for the same singers in his own Magic Flute.

		Although a fully completed work, Der Schauspieldirektor contains only a small amount of music (an overture and four numbers) in a rather long topical comedy with little meaning to modern audiences.
		It is consequently almost never performed in its original form, but rather in various adaptations designed to present Mozart's excellent music in a more appropriate setting.

		Der Schauspieldirektor, opera, K. Composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart
		The whole point of Der Schauspieldirektor is the vocal duel between the two sopranos..."Ich bin die erste sangerin" Madame Herz should crow to Madame Silberklang.
		Pitting the woefully thin and empty soprano of Ruth Welting against the full and luscious voice of Ileana Cotrubas was a non starter, and this recording suffers accordingly.

		A strange, if not altogether expected, result of all this German spam I have been receiving is that the music of Die Zauberflote is stuck in my head.
		I also had a dream last night in which I lambasted someone for claiming that the writing of Die Zauberflote made Der Schauspieldirektor possible -- after all, everyone knows that Der Schauspieldirektor was written five entire years before.
		Soon, no doubt, I'll be dreaming of The Magic Flute, with all the parts played by Masonic German peace officers who are hunting down a group of female spammers that sing opera.
