The Met: Live in HD, the Metropolitan Opera's award-winning series of live high-definition cinema simulcasts, presents Mozart's DON GIOVANNI on Saturday, May 20 at 12:55 pm ET, in the Warner Theatre's Oneglia Auditorium (Main Stage).
While I’ve always been bothered by the cruelties and misogyny of the main character, Mozart’s DON GIOVANNI has (musically) been my favorite of the composer’s operas, though either casting or design has been a regular issue in bringing off the work at its best. Happily, the Met’s new production by Belgian provocateur Ivo van Hove is a success for me, with a cast filled with wonderful singers and the Met orchestra and chorus sounding great under debutante Nathalie Stutzmann.
