DON GIOVANNI: ARENA DI VERONA (MONTANARI)

Mozarts Don Giovanni, in the beautiful staging by legendary Franco Zeffirelli, is a spectacle with a strong anaesthetising component, and a feast for the eyes. In this production Zeffirelli returns to a representative Super classic line, renewing the complex mechanisms of almost all his other productions (Il corriere musicale) with beautiful classic costumes by Maurizio Millenotti and lights by Paolo Mazzon (Lape musicale). Carlos Alvarez is of beautiful voice (GP Opera) and presumably todays best Don Giovanni (Lape musicale) while Irina Lungu is one of the best lyric sopranes (Lape musicale). Donna Elvira, being sung by Maria Jose Siri was clearly and advantageously represented by her mellow and beguiling voice. (MTG Lirica)
