Erwin Schrott performing in his most celebrated role, Don Giovanni. Featuring a stellar cast of singers - Erwin Schrott, Anna Netrebko, Luca Pisaroni, Malena Ernman. "Schrott creates Don Giovanni in all his malevolent glory - virile, confident, arrogant. He is bursting with animal sexuality, yet manages to hint at the manic obsession that drives the character. Stunning." Opera Today.

Subtitles: German, English, French, Italian

"This well-shot, telegenic production...underscores the opera's sexual brutality...[Schrott] oozes his trademark charisma. Luca Pisaroni shows why he's the Leporello of choice these days with a well-moulded baritone, Charles Castronovo sings Don Ottavio's difficult music with exceptional artistry and [Dragojevic] walks off with every scene she's in." (Gramophone Jan 2015)

"[Schrott] looks wonderful, is a natural and extraordinarily gifted actor, and has so much sinister charm that one understands why no woman can resist him. He has a rich voice, with many subtle shades. This is a definitive account [of the title-role]." (BBC Music)
