This ...
It's a real rude
And you, maestro Salieri How can you allowso rude without intervening?
I beg you, Madam Cavalieri,no reason to irritate
Well. A brief pause for all
This is certainly areal rude
so, and benefits from aartist in Vienna

Love, listen"Not a word
You wanted to humiliate invitingto that brazen to your operating
Maestro Salieri. My name is Lorenzo da Ponte,I just came to Vienna
I wanted to ask you ...

Again, there are things to admire,there are plenty of
And how are things going with oursecond "grace," Mrs. Ferrarese?
Your idea of bringing Mrs. Cavalieri,my new opera and Mrs. Ferrarese
is proving an excellent idea, rather,I would say that even wonderful
y. .. Majesty, let me introduceFather Lorenzo da Ponte
dear friend and poet.Just arrived from Venice
Majesty, I am delighted to find myself in the presencethe wise and enlightened monarch of Europe
In Venice, where I come from,You are respected and admired
- So you're a p et?"Yes, majesty
In addition to cure, libertine and troublemaker
an exaggerated reputationI was not appropriate, majesty
Mr. da Ponte, exiled from Veniceis seeking employment
Your Majesty may perhaps ...do something for him
Of course
Vienna needed now more than ever, poets,of fresh blood,
new momentum, builders,especially in the operating theater
Maestro Salieri what you say if we trusted ourfriend da Ponte's libretto your next operation?
Forgive me but I fear Majestynot live up to such a task
I have never written an opera text
You lack experience in the field of opera,I do not think a serious obstacle
On the contrary, we need new talentsnew ideas, to renew our operating
Even more so if my ideaPlease find the teacher's Salieri
You mean we'll have a virgin muse
Majesty, let me remind you thatSalieri is already committed teacher
our poet ..."Oh yes, Casti, Casti, I forgot
Well, that can be remedied Is there another composer herein Vienna with whom you would like to collaborate?
And why not, Mozart?
Our little rebel Salzburg.That wonderful idea

I'm glad you have not decidedundertake the journey alone
Let me introduce you to a dear friend
"Mrs. ...-Adriana Ferrarese, the incomparable soprano
Oyéndoos delight me firstin "The Marriage of Figaro in Prague
but now I see you closely
I must say that the rest of your personfully honor so magnificent voice
And I see that the stories I have heardabout you, were not exaggerated
Oh, woe is me. These are not stories butHistory
At my age, I have found peace of the senses
and the work of the spirit is love administeralso to the memories
These senses give us back
His Excellency the Duke of Duke has entrusted methe care of his magnificent library
and now I live immersed in dreamsand desires that lie between ...
.. Between wild adventures, secretsand impossible love
Books are my only comfort
Ah, we all have a book canunmoved Lorenzo is not it?
East of here, I was expecting
No, this is for you
It looks like the book I sawthe day of my baptism
seems, is the same book
when you left Venice, I foundin a bookstore and I thought
I buy it and give it to Lorenzo
Annetta
Whatever you were when you leftless rich and now ...
are one of the most acclaimedEuropean lyric writers
I merit yourrecommend to Salieri
he has helped me to comein the world of music
Forget Salieri, no,He is an excellent musician but ...
their obligations in courtconstitute a major constraint
You must work more with Mozarthe is a talented artist
Figaro your ... delicious, light,full of imagination
the future, this is the wayyou must follow
is the same as I tell him,
after the triumph of FigaroLorenzo must return to work with Mozart
And why not? Me. You must knowto have waived my voice
because Salieri is a villain imposedhis own mistress, La Cavalieri
that all that exercise to perfectionis ... well, you can imagine
Salieri is a villain, the Cavalieri is not a prostituteand I have not married Mozart
The truth is that Mozart has very particular tastes
and rejects all operassuggested to him
Pedídmelo and I will write a storyworthy of your talent
What story?
A new Don Giovanni
Wolfgang, arise.There are guests that await you
- Who are they?-Da Ponte and Salieri
No, do not throw them, not interested
Want to write a new opera,look, you have given us a great advance
You do not play hard to get and getcompensation as is
Let me remind you that we haveor to pay the maid
that neitherwe enjoy good health
and I must do the baths in Switzerlandmedical cures cost an arm and a leg
! Just your regrets!Always telling me what to do
I have enough of recriminations
Stanzi, sorry

Let's see who want to tell methese two intriguing Italian
-Master"Dearest

who are commissioned to composea new opera
In Italian, obviously
and assisted poetic talentour friend da Ponte
as you know, the emperor has beenvery pleased with "The Marriage of Figaro"
We will do everything possible to meetHis Majesty again
So let me recommend youavoid the scandals

But what is it?
All in good time, teacher
In the representation of an operation, it is necessaryensure the proper education, as in a banquet
is to instill a bit of sweetness toeveryday work of public
Therefore, my dear fellow, if you allow a council
music compose a simple, light, listenable
for fine palates can alsodigest and enjoy the show
Dulzura, banquet, tasting, digesting
Well, if I have understood correctly, maestro Salieri
for you to compose an operais like making a good sweet
Let
The broken heart and eggs
Some of intrigue, flour
and the intermediate comic, sugar
In this beautiful approachMaster da Ponte, puts verses
I put the notes, everything is baked andthe beautiful sweet is ready right?
Lord, please forgive me.Other matters require my presence
Good work
You have been too hard on him
Salieri is more sensitive than it looks
Can you tell me what is the matterrugged that referred to the teacher Salieri?
In an operation it will shake and astonishmuch more than "The Marriage of Figaro"
Or whatever?
"Don Giovanni"Don Giovanni
But if it has already been done dozens of times
as we will never
We will make a Don Giovanninone forget
You know well that in every noteI write something my
I feel, what I love
on paper there is alwaysa piece of my life
for me, not just work, is much more.My music is an inner fire consumes me
because you want to force me to suffer allthis for a taxable as ordinary
Let me convince you
Let me tell you the start
Imagine
a man wrapped in a wide layer
through the forest surroundinga sumptuous palace
Nieva, it is night
and there is a hugefull moon in the sky
but the light cast by the treesis not white is rather blue
in this scene we see a man sleep with his facecovered by the wide-brimmed hat
Man is, and what you will haveguessed it, Don Giovanni

because it gives us back
has restless sleep, her long hairare scattered over the pillow

strips
Don Giovanni is not controlled and whispers,caught the ear of Dona Ana
Dona Ana, my love, my life
Dona Ana then realizes that nois love as she thought her fiancé
if not a stranger
! Help! ! Help!
Feeling exposed, Don G ovanni,jumps out of bed
and rushes to pick up his clothes,putting them in any way
out on the balcony, jump the rail andfearless feline with a jump
is dropped on the surfa esurrounding the mansion
and flees through the forest
while Dona Ana looksthe balcony while screaming
Don Giovanni at the end disappears
between the spectral trees
a truly brilliant start,is sensual, bold
Obviously, as I have narrated,the prelude
"As the prelude?

But what would you have me careSalieri recommendations?
agreement "but then, where to start?
We started outside the mansion
With Don Giovanni jumping from the balcony and goes
before fleeing, Don Giovanni, shouldfight a duel with the commander
Dona Ana's father, who came to his rampage
the commander, draws his swordand confronts Don Giovanni
is an uneven match, given the abilityDon Giovanni and swordsman
Don Giovanni kills the Commendatorea stab in the chest
that murder, representsthe premise of the whole mess
because once the commander dead
this return at the end of the opera
as a marble statue
But you want to start it?
Falling in the middle of a match without concedingthe public a minimum of preparation,
introductory history
While Don Giovanni entersin the bedroom of Dona Ana
is someone who makes an ccompliceUnder the balcony
And who is it?
"Leporello"Leporello
Of course, Leporello,Don Giovanni's servant

My father knew your exile and the factthat you had come here to Vienna
but wanted to meet you and tell youI was too old and ill to travel
"Sorry"And so, after his death
I decided to leave Veniceand move here, to Vienna
But because you have not beento look for immediately?
