Der Vogelfanger bin ich Ja, (The Birdcatchers Song) is an aria from the first act of Mozarts comic opera, The Magic Flute. It has become one of Mozarts best loved melodies and features the birdcatcher Papageno. In the first production the role was played by the producer and theatre owner. He was not a trained singer so Mozart deliberately wrote a simple melody of limited range. This version is arranged as a duet for one Alto and one Tenor Saxophone.
Musicians at an intermediate level and above will find this ideal for formal and informal performances, with both parts enjoying melodic interest. The duet format gives instrumentalists an opportunity to play music written for the voice. The overall performance time is around a minute and a half. The full-length youtube performance is the Clarinet version of this duet.
Teachers will enjoy using this arrangement as a fun way to help with detailed articulation and dynamics.
