"Don Giovanni" is an opera that simultaneously captivates with the beauty of its music, entertains with vibrant scenes, and poses uncomfortable questions, leaving behind a powerful emotional resonance and a sense of inner searching.
In this production, the famous protagonist appears as more than just a daring seducer. His story is a precise reflection of a society that talks much yet evades decisive action. This is a world that readily condemns evil but often tolerates it, hiding behind doubts, hesitations, and endless contemplations on the degree of harm inflicted.
From the very first chords of the powerful overture, the music seizes the listener and refuses to let go until the final note. The composer creates a vivid, living gallery of characters, each possessing a distinct personality and their own truth. The stage brings to life the romantic and devoted Don Ottavio, the noble Donna Anna, the passionate Donna Elvira, and the honest, spirited Zerlina and Masetto. Beside them stand the relentless, ironic Don Giovanni, bursting with vital energy, and his clever servant, Leporello.
In this interpretation, Don Giovanni becomes less the driver of events and more their reflection. Through his actions, the fear of those around him to take responsibility, to reach a final resolution, and to break the vicious cycle of inaction is laid bare. The protagonist emerges as a symbol of a collective refusal to act when action is most needed.
