Royal Opera Opens New Season with Kasper Holten's Don Giovanni Revival
The Royal Opera's new season launches with a revival of Kasper Holten's 2014 staging of Don Giovanni, with Stefano Montanari on the podium. Montanari's conducting supplies the production with a fierce, high-voltage orchestral attack. The result is a hell-for-leather account of Mozart's opera, driven by the conductor's hair-raising intensity rather than restraint.
