5 reasons to see Mozart's Don Giovanni next month at the Sydney Opera House

1. Mozart’s famous, thundering overture

From the iconic, crashing D Minor chord that kicks off the opera — symbolising the gates of hell opening — to its conclusion, this is Mozart at his best. It features some of his most loved arias (the Champagne Aria) and duets (‘Là ci darem la mano’). Hear the music

2. Fast-rising Ukrainian star Andrei Kymach

He won the prestigious BBC Cardiff Singer of the World in 2019 and is now in high-demand across the world. And Don Giovanni is fast becoming one of his calling cards. Find out more

3. The enormous immersive set

A giant staircase magically descends from the heavens in designer Robert Jones’ dark set, inspired by the catacombs under Vienna. See the design

4. Australia's next gen of star sopranos

Remember these names: Sophie Salvesani, Bronwyn Douglass and Cathy-Di Zhang. These three singers are the future stars of opera in Australia, and they’re singing the three great soprano roles in the opera.

5. The gorgeously detailed period costumes

Beautiful tailoring, detailed embroidery and embellishments: these costumes transport you to the late 18th century, when this production is set. Watch the trailer
