	The Mozart Project: Papageno: Emanuel Schikaneder
		Emanuel Schikaneder, perhaps one of Mozart's best friends, made several entrances and exits during the composer's life.
		The fact is, Schikaneder was very well known in Vienna, especially among the middle class audiences that he endeavored to attract to his theaters.
		Schikaneder's rise from itinerant entertainer to Vienna's most influential impresario makes quite a story, and Kurt Honolka tells it in a straightforward manner.

	Emanuel Schikaneder - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Emanuel Schikaneder (Straubing, September 9, 1751 – September 21, 1812, Vienna), born Johann Joseph Schikaneder, was a German impresario, dramatist, actor, and singer.
		Schikaneder performed at the Kärntnertortheater in Vienna from 1785, while still working with the Salzburg group as time permitted.
		The libretto was Schikaneder's and incorporated a loose mixture of Masonic elements and traditional fairy-tale themes.

	Theater an der Wien
		Schikaneder, Theaterprofi wie er war, hatte das Haus nach den neuesten technischen Erkenntnissen und ganz nach seiner Bühnenerfahrung ausgestattet.
		In den nächsten Jahren zeigte sich allerdings, dass es zum erfolgreichen Führen eines Theaters vor allem auch eines sehr gutes Gefühl für die jeweilige Finanzlage bedarf.
		Schikaneder, in den ersten Jahren als Direktor sehr erfolgreich, konnte das Geld ebensowenig zusammenhalten, wie die meisten seiner Nachfolger.

	Mozart, Henneberg, Schack, Gerl and Schikaneder - The Philosopher's Stone
		By 1787 he was a member of Schikaneder's company in Regensburg, transferring to the Theater auf der Wieden in Vienna in 1789: his reputation was as a comic bass, but Schikaneder also employed him as a composer on a number of occasions between 1789 and 1793, most notably for Der dumme Anton.
		Benedikt Emanuel Schack (1758-1826), Austrian composer and tenor, studied medicine and singing, joining Schikaneder's company in 1786, in which year his voice was highly praised by Leopold Mozart.
		Emanuel Schikaneder (1751-1812) was a figure of extraordinary versatility: dancer, singer, actor, director, librettist and impresario.

	'The Magic Flute': Opera Burlesque \| Arts \| The Stranger, Seattle's Only Newspaper
		After losing his royal patronage, Mozart was approached by his old friend Emanuel Schikaneder, who asked him to compose a "sing-spiel," a musical theater piece with spoken dialogue, for the Theater auf der Weiden in Vienna.
		Schikaneder wanted a show full of spectacle, laughs, and great tunes, and to this end, he cobbled together bits of old fairy tales -- a battle between a queen and a priest, a trial, a quest, a flute with magical powers, and a bunch of weird animals.
		Scarfe's cartoony sets include a giant snake, a flying genii-toting boat (Maggie Cassidy-Brinn is the third genii in the boat on October 24 and 29), a portable pyramid, and a series of psychedelic skies.

	The Magic Flute: The Guided Tour at Getreidegasse 9-Wilkommen!
		Schikaneder's proposal of The Magic Flute came at a time when Mozart was quite prolific in several genres: dance music, the piano concerto in Bb major (K.595, his last) a string quartet, the Eb quintet, works for mechanical clock as well as several songs to name a few.
		Schikaneder's libretto has varied sources, and the interpolation of the sources themselves could certainly contribute to the plot's initial inaccessibility.
		Schikaneder's letter is revealing, and shows his need for acceptance to a formal organization.

	The Magic Flute (Mozart) - Synopsis
		Emanuel Johann Schikaneder, who wrote it with the aid of a chorister named Gieseke, was a friend of Mozart and a member of the same Masonic Lodge.
		While Schikaneder was busy on his libretto, a fairy story by Perinet, music by Wenzel Müller, and treating of the same subject, was given at another Viennese theatre.
		As a practical man Schikaneder saw his chance to exploit the interdicted rites on the stage.

	Amadeus
		The theater was designed as a faithful reproduction of the type employed and built by Mozart’s friend, the dramatist, director, actor, singer, librettist and composer Emanuel Schikaneder (1751-1812) portrayed in the film by Simon Callow.
		Schikaneder’s wooden frame “Volkstheater” (People’s Theatre) presented the more popular diversions, musicals and operas of his day.
		This specially constructed theater was used for the filming of a parody and sequences from Mozart’s opera “The Magic Flute” which was premiered in Schikaneder’s theater.

		Instead Mozart teamed up with his old friend Emanuel Schikaneder, the actor and manager of a theatrical troupe that was presenting plays and operas in a distinctly low-brow theater on the edges of Vienna.
		Schikaneder had written the libretto for a singspiel—literally a “song play,” an opera with spoken dialogue—called The Magic Flute in which he would play the comic lead, and he invited Mozart to supply the music.
		Schikaneder was a skilled Shakespearean actor as well.

	Maria Nockin was at San Diego Opera's 'The Magic Flute'
		The opera is rife with masonic symbols because the composer and possibly his librettist, Emanuel Schikaneder, were members of that group.
		One of the reasons that masonic lodges became popular in that era was that no distinction was made between members who were from the nobility and members who were commoners.
		Schikaneder had tried to join a masonic lodge in his home city of Regensburg, but was rejected because of his extra-marital affairs.

		When he died, Eleonore was left holding the lease, and did what any sensible 18th-century actress would have done in her place: She sent for her ex-husband, graciously overlooking the fact that, a decade earlier, his multiple adulteries had been what drove her into Friedel's arms in the first place.
		In 1786, Schikaneder had opened his abortive stint as head of Vienna's Kärntnertor Theater with a revival of Mozart's Abduction from the Seraglio, on the structure of which the Flute's libretto would later be modeled.
		It says much for Schikaneder's artistic range that this man so widely acclaimed as Hamlet and Iago should have made a triumph as the clownish Papageno, for whom, as for other minor characters like the low-comic villain Monostatos, Mozart tailored songs (distinctly not arias) that are tuneful, simple, and easily hummable by audiences.

	Mozart, Henneberg, Schack, Gerl and Schikaneder - The Philosopher's Stone - press
		And they starred the same team, with Schikaneder (Papageno) as the comic Lubano; Schack (Tamino) as the benevolent god Astromonte; Gerl (Sarastro) as the malicious Eutifronte; Gerl's wife (Papagena) singing Lubanara; and the original Pamina (Anna Gottlieb) as the heroine, Nadine.
		Its plot, by Schikaneder, is less high-minded but comparably zany, and Barry Millington's tongue-in-cheek translation – apt, funny and sensitive to the vocal line – enters slap-bang into the spirit of the original.
		One of a succession of often co-operatively-written, 'fairy-tale' Singspiele which Schikaneder put on at his Theatre auf der Wieden after 1789 (The Magic Flute was soon to follow), it gestures affectionately towards the Plautine comic usages, and makes its tangle of complexities a running joke.

	Performance Notes \| The Magic Flute \| Abbeville Press
		The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte) is the product of a unique collaboration between the actor-manager Emanuel Schikaneder, who commissioned it in 1791, and the composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart—who at age thirty-five was at the height of his creative genius and in the last year of his tragically short life.
		It is a German Singspiel (sung/spoken) opera in two acts, with a libretto attributed to Schikaneder, though it was probably written mostly by C. Giesecke, an actor in Schikaneder’s company.
		Schikaneder’s production was performed over one hundred times and toured in every country in Europe except Italy.

		There are also small treasures sprinkled throughout Amadeus aside from its musical performances and flashbacks to the ancient Salieri reflecting on his crimes.
		In addition to the ridiculously self-important demeanor of Jones's Emperor, Patrick Hines is wonderful as Kappellmeister Bonno and Simon Callow, Shaffer's original Mozart from the play, plays the charismatic Emanuel Schikaneder with a sense of buoyancy and danger.
		Berridge is totally sympathetic as Constanze and Dotrice is undeniably dominating of his son as the elder Mozart.

	Telarc International:
		While scholars have long known that The Magic Flute was not the only fairy-tale opera to be produced by Emanuel Schikaneder at his Theater auf der Weiden in Vienna, they did not, until recently, have definitive evidence that Mozart himself contributed to any of the other extant works.
		"The Schikaneder company were a very talented crew…Pearlman directs…with a firm hand, and does well to let us hear the orchestral detail…He draws sure singing from the choir…Mozartians will certainly want to hear this set, partly for the ‘new’ pieces, partly for the fascinating context it provides for Die Zauberflote."
		Most are likely to find themselves enjoying the music and even the story…without considering who composed what.

		The Magic Flute in 1791 shortly before his death in December of that year.
		Mozart worked with co-librettist and theater director Emanuel Schikaneder.
		However, Schikaneder was partial to state-of-the-art special effects, and was thus able to bring a lightness, and magic to the play capable of endearing it to audiences, particularly younger audience members.
