Verbier Don Giovanni with Quasthoff, Terfel, Pape

A better casting for the male leads of Don Giovanni is hard to imagine. Unfortunately the ladies did not quite live up to their male counterparts. According to himself, this was Bryn Terfel´s last performance of Don Giovanni as the Don.

Manfred Honeck conducted the Verbier Festival Orchestra for this concert performance on July 20th 2009.

    Terfel's best effort as the Don in my experience. Certainly to be preferred to what I saw at the Met and CG.

    However wonderful the Donnae, I can indeed imagine better casting.
