@johan52312 ...auf eine unvergleichlich eindringliche Weise-mit einer angemessenen Dominanz und in jenseitiger Gewissheit ruhenden Kraft.

Kurt Moll and Samuel Ramey just can't be beat.

..die Stimme Talvela´s formt die Botschaft dieser Szene auf einer einizartigen Weise.

Aw Talvela didn't showboat the low D

I disagree with those who dislike Dietrich Fischer-Dieskau's Giovanni: I think he's superb in this role, and the blend of his and Flagello's voices is also excellent: each distinct and reconizable, butnever in conflict or competition.

FINALLY! I've been wanting to find a recording of Talvela as Il Commendatore, but never could. Thank you!

Talvela is magnificent. Dieskau is of the most refined singers of his generation, but Don Giovanni is not his role.
I have heard this scene in this specific recording probably hundred times-one of my favourite opera scenes in the opera of operas(E.T.A. Hofmann) so admirably described by Hesse in Steppenwolf and so outstanding a performance by the definitiv Commendatore Martti Talvela. Fervour, intnesity, beauty, drama... I am so glad I know this recording since my teenage years. Phantastic.

Towering, overwhelmingly powerfull, with fervour yet warm expression, long sheer endless lines and notes sung in forte -seemingly effortless, excellent italian idiom, unmatched in commanding force. Martti Talvela.
