Inhalt: |
Don Giovanni is one of the timeIess cIassics of alI opera. Mozart's music, and the words of his great coIlaborator Da Ponte, are brought to Iife in Francesca ZambeIlo's engrossing production from 2002 with its rich and colourful designs by Maria Bjornson. The music is memorabIe, dramatic and enjoyable: from the seductive soIo voices of the famous 'La ci darem la mano' to the fabulous ensemble as Don Giovanni's infatuated conquests, vengeful victims and their outraged relatives join forces for justice. And retribution does finalIy come to Don Giovanni, a serial womanizer and a murderer,
with the searing flames of HelI ready to enguIf him. Simon Keenlyside heads the outstanding cast, conducted by renowned Mozart expert Charles Mackerras. |
