Barrie Kosky, one of the most exciting opera directors of our time, opened his newly staged Da Ponte cycle at the Wiener Staatsoper with a character-driven new production of Mozart’s Don Giovanni. Kyle Ketelsen in the title role and Philippe Sly as Leporello “took centre stage (...) and dared to satirise the burden of tradition” (ORF). Hanna- Elisabeth Müller is a compelling Donna Anna, Patricia Nolz gives a remarkable role debut as Zerlina, and Peter Kellner shines as Masetto. Kate Lindsey presents a fascinating character study as Donna Elvira, and Stanislas de Barbeyrac excels as Don Ottavio. Philippe Jordan conducts the Orchestra of the Wiener Staatsoper, bringing “transparency, tangibility and poetry on the basis of historical accuracy” (Der Standard) – even in the subtly played recitatives on the fortepiano. “Kosky and Jordan met congenially in the direction of the singers.” (ORF)
