Opera Easy. Don Giovanni

Description

"Who is the most macho character in all of legend and literature? Could it be Casanova? Or James Bond? Well, my vote would go to Don Juan or, if you prefer, Don Giovanni. Unscrupulous, immoral, and scandalous, his amorous exploits were brought to the operatic stage by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and his librettist Lorenzo da Ponte, who was a figure of scandal in his own right. Welcome to Opera Easy's featured opera: Mozart's Don Giovanni," says program host Natalie Choquette.
