The so-called "threefold chord," presented in this opera's overture, appears again near the beginning of Act II, signifying that the choir deems the lead tenor worthy. In one quintet, a character sings "Hm, hm,  hm, hm" because his mouth has been padlocked for claiming to have saved the tenor's life. When the tenor  is unable to respond to his lover, she believes he is no longer in love with her and sings the aria "Ach, ich fühl's." A glockenspiel, representing a set of bells, accompanies the aria "Ein Mädchen oder Weibchen,"  and another character reaches high F in both of her arias, the second of which is the revenge aria "Der Hölle Rache," in which she urges her daughter to kill Sarastro. Featuring the Queen of the Night, Pamina,  Tamino, and Papageno, for 10 points, identify this German opera by Mozart.
