Episode description

EPISODE DESCRIPTION:
Devilius hires two evil crooks to kidnap Amadeus and his best friend Kajetan so he can finally discover the secret behind Amadeus' music. The two boys, not easily taken by surprise, outwit the naïve crooks and save themselves on a raft — until they encounter dangerous rapids.


MUSIC:
The episode begins with the aria „Ein Mädchen oder Weibchen wünscht Papageno sich“from the „Magic Flute“ KV 620. As the action develops, we hear the Rondo of the Horn Concerto No. 4 in E Flat Major KV 495, the famous  “Rondo alla Turca“ of the Piano Sonata No. 11 in A Major KV 331 and, at the end, the peaceful 2nd Movement of the Serenade No. 13 “Eine kleine Nachtmusik” in G Major KV 525.
