In staging Mozart’s ‘The Magic Flute’, the programmers have brought in a large cast which includes both local and international singers, an ensemble chorus and, of course, the Malaysian Philharmonic Orchestra. The Stage Director and lead tenor, Steve Davislim; and Chi Hoe Mak share to give us a sneak peek.
