The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte) is an opera by Amadeus Mozart to a libretto written by German composer Emanuel Schikaneder. There is a famous aria from the opera sung by the Queen of the Night (Königin der Nacht) called Der Hölle Rache kocht in meinem Herzen, which roughly means "Hell's vengeance boils in my heart". It is usually sung by a coloratura soprano and it requires an F6 note, rare in opera. The Magic Flute was premiered on September 30, 1791 in Vienna.
