Mozart wrote The Magic Flute as a singspiel opera in two acts in 1791 when it received its first set of performances in Vienna and from that time it has featured as one of the most popular works in operatic repertoire. This love duet with its stuttering ‘pa pa pa’ occurs almost at the end of the opera when the comical couple Papageno and Papagena finally are assured of each other’s love. It is a light-hearted excerpt appropriate for recital or encore.

Victor Hely-Hutchinson (1901 - 1947) was a British composer who was born in South Africa. He was recognised at an early age as a musical prodigy and could sing notes by ear before he could talk. His setting of Old Mother Hubbard was written c.1912 while he was still a pupil at Heatherdown Prep School. It is well-known for being a parody of Handel’s operatic style. Old Mother Hubbard was arranged for TTBB male Voice chorus by J. Michael Diack and first published in 1932. A timeless and amusing classic it is sure to go down well with any audience!
