MET OPERA LIVE IN HD – DON GIOVANNI
20 MAY 2023: Peter Mattei stars in the title role of the world’s most notorious lover in Ivo van Hove’s cinematic staging – transmitted live to cinemas on 20 May.
Tony Award–winning director Ivo van Hove makes a major Met debut with a new take on Mozart’s tragicomedy, re-setting the familiar tale of deceit and damnation in an abstract architectural landscape and shining a light into the dark corners of the story and its characters.
Maestro Nathalie Stutzmann makes her Met debut conducting a star-studded cast led by baritone Peter Mattei as a magnetic Don Giovanni, alongside the Leporello of bass-baritone Adam Plachetka. Sopranos Federica Lombardi, Ana María Martínez, and Ying Fang make a superlative trio as Giovanni’s conquests – Donna Anna, Donna Elvira, and Zerlina – and tenor Ben Bliss is Don Ottavio. The live cinema transmission is part of the Met’s award-winning Live in HD series, presented in Germany and Austria by Clasart Classic.
