Searching the internet for recordings of The Magic Flute (as requested by a friend for whom it is to be a Christmas present), I came across the following somewhat surprising listing:Mozart:
The Magic Flute
performed by
London Philharmonic Orchestra,
Geoffrey Mitchell Choir,
Charles Mackerras
and
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart!
It's really reassuring to know that 'Wolfie' is still merrily music-making after all these years!
For other fun stuff on WAM, stop by the The Mozart Cafe.

If Mozart is not dead, he must be at least be de-composing !
