What doesn't get lost, however, are the voices, which are, bar none, the personification of joy. The buoyancy in soprano Aga Mikolaj's interpretation of "Ah fuggi il traditor" ("Flee the traitor," Donna Elvira cautions Giovanni's mistresses), or soprano Anna Prohaska's soulful "Batti, batti, o bel Masetto" ("Beat me," Zerlina pleads to her groom, furious that she went off with Giovanni), or the dulcet tones of tenor Pavol Breslik's Don Ottavio singing "Il mio tesoro intanto," vowing to his bride, Donna Anna, to avenge the murder of her father by Giovanni.

So does this production serve the score? Yes and no. As a concert performance, is there enough to recommend it? Yes and yes. As an experiment, was it worth the effort? Unequivocally.
