Editor's Notes and Comments:
Product Description:
Perhaps the greatest opera ever written, Don Giovanni is presented here in the C. F. Peters edition, that contains everything from the original version, along with later arias, recitatives and duets added for the Vienna performance. Text in both Italian and German.
Amazon.com Review:
The partnership between composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and poet Lorenzo da Ponte is quite possibly the most inspired in all of musical history; somehow, their operas reach more deeply into the human soul than any before or since. Don Giovanni is one of the great ones: it is an exploration not only of lust and indulgence, but of obsession and class structure. This full orchestral score from Dover lays it all out in front of you. Be aware that, because it is an orchestral score, it won't be of much use to a rehearsal pianist and will probably be too bulky for everyday use by singers. You should also be aware that this is a reprint of an out-of-copyright score originally issued in 1941 by a German publisher, C. F. Peters of Leipzig. That means, among other things, that the alternate language is German. But if you've got an English translation (or if you don't need one), and want to examine Mozart's art closely, you may find this very useful.

IN an age when opera scores are expensive and some out of print, it's wonderful to find a company who is keeping singers and accompanists well stocked. My old score fell apart. I was delighted to find that Dover's pages corresponded to my former score.
I now am replenishing my library, and give scores as gifts to young promising pupils. BRAVO DOVER!

I bought this score for my son and he has been conducting ever since. My son, Oliver Aldort, is only 14, but he is a national winner cellist, pianist and conductor. He bought this score to work on his conducting of the overture in November.
The score is clear, easy to look away and come back to, and of course, it is Mozart!

One of the world's best operas printed by one of the world's best publishers - it couldn't be much better. Dover Publications' scores are always of the highest quality: Large pages and clear type for ease in reading, and a sewn spine (not glued) for flexability and durability. To make it even better, contained between the well-fabricated covers of this score is arguably the best opera ever composed by arguably the best composer the world has ever seen. Ladies and gentlemen, it doesn't get any better than this. If you like Mozart or if you like Don Giovanni, be sure to acquire this score as soon as possible.

Dover has done it again. This opera (one of the best ever written) is done up beautifully for everyone; from someone just looking into an opera for the very first time to an experienced veteran. I would recommend it for all. As a bonus, it includes the Concert Ending of the Overture, the Transposition of the Aria No. 21b and the But in the Finale No. 24. The Editor's Commentary is also very informative and interesting. A must have for any Mozart lover's collection.
