Mozart’s opera “The Magic Flute” may seem like an enchanting little fairy tale, but it is much more than that. Its plot involves a battle between the forces of good and evil, attempted murder and rape, character misconceptions, love and revenge, a killer serpent, magical musical instruments, a walking talking aviary person and strong references to Freemasonry. Add to that charming music, two fiendishly difficult arias for coloratura soprano and you have one of Mozart’s most delightful operas.

Covid has had a dramatic impact on everyone’s lives. It has also had a dramatic impact on the global economy and financial markets. We are in a period of inflation not seen in decades, and our central bank is scrambling to control it.
