Mozart - Don Giovanni - complete (English Subtitles) - HD


Shiner and I enjoyed The Magic Flute so much we decided to try this. It's kind of Mozart's version of Investigation Discovery. I still don't care for opera, I used to use it as a form of punishment for the boys I babysat, but I'm starting to believe that with Mozart you can't go wrong. Besides, Giovanni and his servant are hot. I fell asleep halfway through, and it inspired a dream. 

Update: laughing at the end when Donna Anna asks the Lord for pity: wine and a'pizza. Don't take me to the opera, Y'all. Might skip The Marriage of Figaro. Might break a rib.

Mozart’s The Magic Flute at the Bregenz Festival (excerpt) | Carnegie Hall+


Free Carnegie Hall this week. I was going to watch Sting, I'm a fan, but it's a winter's concert from eleven years ago, and we're having a blazing July, not in the mood. You can never go wrong with Mozart, and I'm enjoying this from a lake in Poland. It starts around suppertime and goes well into the night. I've got about an hour left. It's pretty incredible. I don't like opera besides Pavarotti. I've always liked the symphony and ballet; but I like anything that's good, and this certainly is. ✨𝄞✨
