      The Magic Flute overture: a closed curtain with a painting in a gilt frame.

      Overtures play to a closed curtain, with what to listen for.

      HOW IT WORKS

      1 · Listen

      Opera Moments plays a great recording of the opera, through Apple Music or from tracks you own.

      2 · Understand

      Each line appears in your language at the moment it is sung, timed by hand, line by line.

      3 · Feel it

      No libretto on your lap, no guessing which line is which. Just the music, and what it means.
