Danzi, Franz Ignaz (1763-1826) was a German composer. His works are not so popular. Only his wind quintets are know among woodwind players. He revered W. A. Mozart, and arranged Die Zauberflöte for string quartets. A set of the part notes was published by M. Falter, Munich around 1800. His arrangement consists of 17 pieces as follows.
No.1, Hm! Hm! Hm! Hm!
No.2, Zum Leiden bin ich auserkoren
No.3, Schnelle Füsse rascher Mut
No.4, Es lebe Sarastro Sarastro lebe!
No.5, Herr ich bin zwar Verbrecherin
No.6, Wenn tugend und gerechtigkeit
No.7, Wie? wie? wie?
No.8, O Isis und Osiris
No.9, Bald prengt den Morgen zu verkünden
No.10, Der, welcher wandert diese Straße voll Beschwerden
No.11, Tamino mein!
No.12, Wir wandelten durch Feuersgluten
No.13, Papagena! Papagena! Weibchen! Täubchen!
No.14, Klinget, Glockchen, klinget!
No.15, Pa-Pa-Pa-Papageno
No.16, Nur stille! stille!
No.17, Heil sei euch Geweihten
The arrangement was very faithful to the original, and is valuable in that players could enjoy the wonderful music as a chamber music.
We first made the transcript of the sheet music published by M. Falter, and combined them to make scores. The scores show some discrepancies, which are usual in such old music notes, and was revised to obtain unified styles and articulations. In the revising, we referred the original score by Mozart.
No.2, Zum Leiden bin ich auserkoren is an aria for the Queen of the Night. She plumbs the depths of sorrow because her daughter, Pamina, was captured by Sarastro. She encourages Tamino to rescue Pamina.
