About the event
1979 | Opera | 2h 56m | Not rated
Starring Kiri Te Kanawa, Ruggero Raimondi, John Macurdy, Edda Moser, Kenneth Riegel, Jose van Dam, Teresa Berganza with Mozart’s incomparable music performed by the Paris Opera, conducted by LORIN MAAZEL.
Set in Seville in the 1600s, Mozart’s outrageous comedy tells the tale of an incorrigible playboy who blazes a path to his own destruction in a single day. Don Giovanni follows an irresistible (yet irresponsible and amoral) philanderer loved by women almost as universally as he loves them. However, not even Don Giovanni can escape the consequences of his flouting of morality.
Filmed on location in picturesque Vincenza, Italy, the operatic masterpiece DON GIOVANNI is beautifully translated to film by director JOSEPH LOSEY.
The film is the third of three operas being screened at 3pm on the third Sunday of June, July and August as part of the inaugural Mangawhai Opera Lovers Film Festival.
Join us for a glass of bubbles and canapes at 2.45pm. There will be a short introduction to the film (5-10 minutes at 3pm) before the film is screened. A short, written synopsis of the opera will also be provided.
Note the start time is 3pm (1500), not 4pm. Ticket price is $12.
