Don Giovanni Mozart

Public

Approved

Opera of operas. This is how experts usually title this work of Mozart's mature genius from the last years of the master's life. What is its uniqueness? After all, the story itself - a relatively simple story of a fornicator persecuted by the victims of his passions - does not a priori presuppose the emergence of an opera that should be written in the history of this species in golden letters! Although Mozart does not deviate in any way from the classicist compositional style, although he does not in any way disrupt the strict stylistic "rule", he still gives the work a clear mark of originality, using all positions of musical language as a means of drawing characters and relationships. The author seems to consistently project musical material onto another medium - the surface of the subject - and every singing decoration, every chord of voices in the ensembles, every change of tempo (and so on and so on ...) justifies, fills, lets "soak" with the dramatic meaning. And so, although we are accustomed to interpreting the history of opera in its chronological sequence, Don Giovanni (as in the end all phenomenal works of art) seems to get out of time and space - and with a fascinating connection of music with non-musical meanings boldly competes with the best musical dramas of all periods and provenances!
