"Of which we cannot speak we must sing!"

Mozart's The Abduction from the Seraglio: Why does this person speak and not sing? He longs to sing. Singing generally emerges when language becomes helpless. Ferdinand Raimund's magic plays The Alpine King and the Misanthrope and The Captive Fantasy. "For all happiness, we are loath to believe, at the end is only fantasy." Mozart's The Clemency of Titus: Servilia and Annius light a candle symbolising their love. From Mozart's last opera The Magic Flute: "The rays of the sun conquer the night and destroy the hypocrites' fraudulent power."
