Atlanta Opera to Close Season With DON GIOVANNI, 4/28-5/6
The Atlanta Opera closes its 2011-2012 season with Mozart’s Don Giovanni on April 28, May 1, 4 and 6, 2012 at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre. Widely regarded as the greatest opera ever composed, Don Giovanni is described as "a brilliant combination of comedy and tragedy, telling of the devious schemes and hijinks of history’s most beguiling scoundrel, Don Juan." To celebrate Opening Night, patrons are invited to attend an Opening Night Party, immediately following the performance. Tickets for Don Giovanni and the party can be purchased at atlantaopera.org.
Bass Andrea Concetti makes his Atlanta Opera debut in the role of Don Giovanni. His sidekick, Leporello, will be sung by bass-baritone Eduardo Chama, also debuting with The Atlanta Opera. Sopranos Lori Guilbeau and Melody Moore sing the roles of Donna Anna and Donna Elvira, respectively. The role of Don Ottavio will be sung by tenor Nicholas Phan, who was last heard on The Atlanta Opera stage in 2008 singing Ramiro in Cinderella. The betrothed lovers Zerlina and Masetto will be sung by soprano Angela Kloc and Atlanta baritone Brent Davis. Bass Andrew Kroes sings the Commendatore.
Richard Kagey, who designed the set for last season’s Porgy and Bess and directed the Atlanta Opera’s production of Philip Glass’s Akhnaten in 2008, directs, with Carl and Sally Gable Music Director Arthur Fagen conducting The Atlanta Opera Orchestra. Don Giovanni will be sung in Italian with English supertitles projected above the stage.
