The best Opera Scene ever written (and, ever performed?)

Cesare Siepi's voice seems like Ramey's, isn't it? :o)

Wow. Screenplay and music is amazing. I could really feel the gates of hell opening in the coro di diavoli part. Terrifying. Amazing.

Hai ragionissimo. Ora sentiamo tanto la mancanza di Siepi nelle produzioni più recenti!
I Don Giovanni di oggi poi sono troppo chiari per il mio gusto, preferivo bassi in questo ruolo piuttosto che baritoni.

Good version. Also , the first one I see , dressings and scenario are historically correct. But I dont remember that Lorenzo da Ponte did put the murder trial ,on libretto ( 04:26).

Obviously it's been added by the stage director. In other versions there isn't.

But it's ingenious - it really fits the ever-unbelieving Don Giovanni to check if the Commendatore is an actual statue or simply a hired lookalike...

Dont you think  that it steals both the rythm, and the message , Selkaen ? I mean , about changing Mozarts usual communication with symbolic objects and musical elements . Thank you for sharing this beautiful vídeo.
