Librettist Da Ponte’s most exciting drama performed by a legendary orchestra and a dream cast

Who wouldn't want to be Don Giovanni for a while? Relishing life and love, without worrying about the trail of broken hearts you leave behind? Mozart's timeless opera poses questions that still perplex us today. Certainly when they are performed by delightful voices, such as those of André Morsch and Paula Murrihy. The Orchestra of the Eighteenth Century make Mozart sparkle as never before. But beware, even in Don Giovanni the old adage is ever true: he who laughs last, laughs best.
