 San Diego CityBEAT
Abduction from the Seraglio runs through April 6 at the Lyric Opera San Diego.
Mozart fashioned the percussive sound of Abduction after the Janissary sound.
Therefore, it seems brave and even somewhat foolhardy for Lyric Opera San Diego to stage Mozart’s 1782 comic masterpiece, The Abduction from the Seraglio.

 Philharmonia Baroque Orchestra: Program Notes November 2004
The Overture to The Abduction is a lively piece, which begins with a C-major Presto full of sounds the Viennese associated with Turkish music: piccolo flutes, triangle, cymbals, and bass drums.
The middle section of the overture resembles the melody of the opera's first aria, though here it is in the minor mode and when sung it is in the major.
Haydn's music for Zaïre accompanied performances of the play in Salzburg in 1777.

 KDHX Theatre Review - The Abduction from the Seraglio
So Opera Theatre's current production of Mozart's The Abduction from the Seraglio has some significant failings, but nevertheless it's full of fun and beautiful music, and is well worth your while.
A noble maiden (soprano) sold into the Pasha's harem, a romantic tenor to the rescue, a comic villain (basso) to be foiled, and the requisite sub-plot of romance between the servants makes Mozart's The Abduction from the Seraglio a merry romp indeed, with plenty of gorgeous music to satisfy the most ardent of opera goers.
Kevin Short gives a powerful and lively Osmin, the guardian of the seraglio.

 Opera World, Enhancing the Enjoyment of Opera
Mozart's superb comedy The Abduction from the Seraglio is one of the oldest German operas in the standard repertoire, remarkable for its exquisite, challenging music and for its ingenious characterizations.
In preparation for both Boston Lyric Opera's and San Francisco Opera's fall 2002 performances of this delightful work, SFO's Musical Administrator Dr. Clifford (Kip) Cranna will guide you on a preparatory excursion to help you enjoy Abduction to the fullest.
Act I of Abduction takes us to the Turkish palace of Pasha Selim ("Pasha" was a title of rank in the Ottoman Empire), where Belmont has come looking for his shipwrecked fiancée Constanze, who is among those being held captive there.

 CENTERSTAGE ARTICLE
Mozart, in turn, composed the music for Abduction true to the conventions of "singspiel" (sing-speak) — the action is related through spoken dialogue, while the arias and duets express the emotions of the characters without furthering the plot.
Mozart's composition is more charming than consistent in its musical style.
Mozart's original Abduction From the Seraglio relates the tale of a noblewoman abducted into a Turkish harem by a pirate.

If the music can appeal to us, perchance we can join him on the journey.
Did he have a specific listener in mind?

 SoundStage! Mozart - The Abduction from the Seraglio
Here we have yet another recording of Mozart& The Abduction From The Seraglio -- this time by Sir Charles Mackerras and the Scottish Chamber Orchestra and Chorus on Telarc.
Mackerras seems to be making it his life’s work to record just about everything Mozart ever penned.
The Abduction From The Seraglio was Mozart& second opera (his first being Idomeneo in 1780) and one of the first things he wrote on moving to Vienna in 1781 at the age of 25.

The give and take between his piano and Abbado's properly cut-down orchestra was — as I was saying about Jane Glover's Seraglio back there — another fine example of chamber music writ large.
It was set that time on a Hollywood sound stage during the filming of — you guessed it — something called Abduction From the Seraglio.
Mozart's Abduction From the Seraglio, his first real operatic smash, plays on one of the hoariest of opera plots: maiden, captured by tyrant, rescued by heroic truelove.

 Mozart's Other Masonic Opera
Most Masonic commentators on Mozart's music have been content to address only the obvious relationships of his music to the Craft, for example, those pieces ( Masonic Funeral Music, Little Masonic Music) that explicitly mention Masonry in their title, along with his final opera, The Magic Flute.
Before addressing The Abduction, it is worthwhile looking at The Magic Flute again, for its customary analysis shows how the obvious and facile can obscure the more interesting and challenging aspects of a work.
When the masses seek immediate gratification by setting above them those who rule in the name of ignorance and superstition, the misery of all is the inevitable result.

The success of Amadeus spurred a long-overdue renaissance of interest in classical music, and one would be hard-pressed to find a richer, more concise introduction to the intoxicating music and frustrating bundle of moral contradictions that was Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart.

Director Milos Forman's rewarding 1984 film adaptation of playwright Peter Shaffer's Tony-winning play won no fewer than 10 Academy Awards (including Best Film, Best Actor, and Best Director); only Wolfgang himself (and his filmic counterpart, Tom Hulce) seemed to get overlooked by the Academy.

 Amazon.com: DVD: Mozart - Die Entfuhrung aus dem Serail (The Abduction from the Seraglio) / Bohm, Gruberova, Grist
Or the contrasting way that Belmonte later declares his propensity to sing before "Wenn der Freunde." My point - which may be getting lost here - is that the beauty of German opera/singspiel is not just about the music, but how the dialogue and the music blend together.
There is an excellent recording of Abduction from La Scala with Devia, Lippert, Moll from 1994, in which the interchange between Belmonte and Pedrillio is so charged with emotion and excitement and sexuality, and is so undeniably authentically German, that it pours life into every moment they are onstage.
And I was so surprised to hear that a German audience could stand to see so many singers massacre their language (and the charm of this singspiel) on their home turf.

 Classical Voice Review - Southern California, January 2003
Thursday’s concert began unpromisingly with a heavy-handed, unsmiling account of Mendelssohn’s Violin Concerto by a 19-year-old Sayaka Shoji who, like most child prodigies, finds her technical facility far outstripped by the music’s emotional demand.
The staging of Abduction is a timely one, in light of the current tensions between the Christian and the Muslim worlds.
I am thinking the scene in Act III, in which Pedrillo lulls the Turkish guards to sleep with his ukulele, while Belmonte steals in and out of the other compartment in preparation for their escape.

 Opera struggles unnecessarily with 'Abduction'
The moral center of the piece, oddly enough, is the potentate himself, the Pasha Selim, who never sings -- he's defined only by the reflected music from the characters around him.
Mozart's "Abduction From the Seraglio," a tuneful comedy with some serious undertones, isn't generally considered a "problem" piece.
Mozart's first mature comedy has fared surprisingly poorly at the hands of the period-instruments crowd.

This Abduction will not replace any of the German-language recordings of this opera, but it's fun to have around.
Also, the use of the vernacular intensifies the contextual oddness of Gedda's Swedish accent and Dobbs's studied English (she is trying not to sound like an American); remember, these are Spaniards in Turkey.

When the Ottoman Turkish Empire occupied Serbia and Kosovo in the 18th century, Turks dragged women from their hometowns and threw them into harems—some as concubines, some as dancing girls.

 The Abduction from the Seraglio in Full Score
Exactingly reproduced from the authoritative Breitkopf and Härtel edition, this superb full-score edition offers music lovers a rare opportunity to study and follow performances of this great comic opera, one of the most engaging and least pretentious masterpieces in the repertory.
Die Entfuehrung aus dem Serail --the Abduction from the Seraglio-- was one of Mozart's first operatic hits, and received performances all over Europe, even if the emperor did think it contained too many notes.
Too many tenors is closer to the mark (the male roles include two tenors, one bass, and one character who only speaks), but this singspiel is a bright and bubbly work, endearing in its comic scenes and impressive in its serious moments.

 Classical Net Review - Mozart - The Abduction from the Seraglio
It is traditional to make cuts in this opera, not just in the German dialogue but in the musical numbers as well.
Scenically, the production is vividly colored eye-candy, and its musical values, while not unforgettable, are certainly high enough to encourage return visits to the seraglio!
Most importantly, the production team has remembered that this is a comedy with a heart.

 Die Entführung aus dem Serail - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Finnish composer Aulis Sallinen has written an opera called The Palace ; it contains characters from Abduction, and uses the plot of Mozart's opera as the starting point of a bizarre fantasy.
The plot concerns the attempt of the hero Belmonte, assisted by his servant Pedrillo, to rescue his beloved Konstanze from the seraglio of the Pasha Selim.
The opera was first produced at the command of the Austrian emperor Joseph II on July 16, 1782 at the Burgtheater in Vienna.
