Königin der nacht

Synopsis

Without any kind of warning or introduction, the Queen of the Night's aria explodes rock music of its time. The famous coloratura parts are as ecstatic as a sung orgasm. The Queen of the Night sings women's names: She is all women, she addresses them all by name. A call and an appeal. Like a hurricane, a night owl, a sexual diva, she flies toward the camera before a starry night sky with a full moon. – M.M.
