Sarastro, the wise priest of Isis and Osiris, has taken Pamina to the temple to release her from the influence of her mother, the Queen of the Night. The queen induces the young Prince Tamino to go in search of her daughter and free her from the power of Sarastro; Tamino, accompanied by the birdcatcher Papageno, accomplishes this, but becomes the disciple of Sarastro, whom he admires. After ordeals and confusion, the prince and Pamina are united.
