Analysis of the Operas Don Giovanni and Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute)
This sample from my GER 4500 German Music and Theater class is an analysis and comparison of two operas. In addition to both these operas being preformed in German, Die Zauberflöte is an icon in German culture. Analyzing these operas gave me a unique insight into German literature and culture.

In this essay I analyze two German operas to show how the changing elements reflect the evolution of opera to musicals. The examination of the operas Wozzeck and Freischütz provided me with a new familiarity of German literature and culture.
