Well, everything's wonderful but, is't it awesome from 0:37 to 0:50? How could Mozart make it seem so easy? Someone could tell me: "No! That's really easy!" Well, show me just one work of any other musician with a change from one part to other so melodious, so natural! It's great! By the way, this Mehta's version is overwhelming!
Thomas Hampson is not singing anymore, he tends to shout more or less. Furlanetto: never forget he was KARAJAN'S Leporello 20 years ago. The lesson lives on. The rest is tolerable. We are quite far from the ideal Don Giovanni. The only positive note: the Vienna Philharmonic. They play everything as if they were playing scrabble or drinking a glass of water. Hampson is however definitely overrated. No problem: he was like than 15 years ago so no doubt today he might be even worse
I don't really like Thomas Hampson. He doesn't really stick to the notes the whole time, and the times he chooses to do things like that aren't the right ones. Other than that, this is great! Definitely the greatest opera ever written, in my opinion.
i wanted to buy Don Giovanni at motherfucking barnes and noble or something but it was 53 dollars so screw that, die zauberflote was like 23 dollars - and it was the best recording of it ever with klemplerer
LOL .... ease up on the "french". The Magic Flute was the first Opera I ever bought and listened to in full, and it's still one of my absolute favourites. I don't think you got the worst of that deal! :)
its definatly the old crew singing here, but theyre all still quite good really, and even though everybody is crizising hampson, he's still got an extremely full voice (and its sounds fine most of the time he wouldnt) otherwise he wouldnt be able to sing wagner!!
I don't think I've heard a voice age has been kinder to than Edita Gruberova. She still sounds great. Hampson and Furlanetto sound phenomenal together whenever they're in sync. Makes me really, really want to get to the Met for Boccanegra this season.

I can never quite decide which of the three operas is the greatest. In a way, I hear them as one work.

Don Giovanni is the essence of Mozart, and thus, perfection. All other music must bow before this opera.

I love the picture around 2.50. Taken from the back. Everyone is about the same height and then Thomas Hampson is heads above the rest.
