Don Juan was one of literature's greatest cads -- the original "love 'em and leave 'em" kinda guy. But when the legendary seducer is given one last chance to repent of his philandering ways, he adds murder and blasphemy to his lengthy list of sins! The last straw having fallen, human and supernatural forces combine to enact a terrible punishment. LA Opera's version of Mozart's classic is a production new to L.A., featuring a stand-out performance by the smolderingly intense Ildebrando D'Arcangelo as Don Giovanni. The show features vividly theatrical staging by Peter Stein, Germany's leading theater director.

San Francisco Symphony and Chorus: A Summer Celebration

Full Price:
$37.00 - $88.00
Our Price:
$18.50 - $44.00

The San Francisco Symphony and Chorus present A Summer Celebration, a star-studded concert with an eclectic program and several exciting guests. Conducted by San Francisco Symphony music director Michael Tilson Thomas and San Francisco Symphony Chorus director Ragnar Bohlin, the concert begins with Ligeti's Lux Aeterna, made famous by 2001: A Space Odyssey. Pianist Jean-Yves Thibaudet joins the Symphony to play excerpts from Ravel's jazzy Piano Concerto in G major, and Avery Fisher Prize-winning violinist Gil Shaham makes an appearance, playing the last movement of Tchaikovsky's Violin Concerto. This delightful program also includes the fourth movement of Rachmaninoff's Symphony No. 2 and excerpts from Rodgers and Hammerstein's South Pacific, making for a full evening of sparkling symphonic music.

I didn't enjoy the performance and I can say I was so bored I left after the first half. There was a lot lacking. The actors/singers couldn't act, there was no interpretation in their singing. They seemed to be disconnected from each other. The scenery didn't help. It was altogether a waste of my time and money. I was very disappointed.

I highly recommend this opera for all to see. I certainly understand why this esteemed opera is one of the top 10 German-Italian operas. Conlon was the conductor for the evening. He is truly gifted in his craft. Such fluidity in the notes. The actors' performance was engaging from the first aria until the last.
Our seats were the fifth row from the stage. Gold Star certainly went beyond my expectations to lend itself to our perfect family evening!
