  • Word of Dante: The interpretation that Sarastro is Pamina's father is fairly widespread and shows up in many stagings of the opera, particularly when the libretto is translated and the connection can be made more explicit, and so is frequently taken for granted. (In fact, the interpretation only works because the Queen of the Night's lines about Pamina's father are nearly always cut for time.)
