The Magic Flute is the story of two lovers who must overcome magical ordeals before they can be together. Prince Tamino protected by a golden flute, sets off with the bird-catcher Papageno to rescue his love Pamina from the evil clutches of the sorcerer Sarastro. But the sorcerer is actually a wise priest, who tells Pamina that though she and Tamino are destined for each other, they must first prove their love. When the gods instruct Tamino to take a vow of silence, Pamina fears that all is lost and contemplates suicide, but she is comforted by kind spirits and finds new strength to aid Tamino through the trials of fire and water. Triumphing over all adversity, the lovers unite, as the forces of light banish the darkness, and the magic flute carries the final melody.
