Eine kleine Nachtmusik' '... written with ease, but skillfully refined' 'Eine kleine NachtMusick' is how Mozart entered the Serenade in G major in his personal catalogue of works on 10 August 1787. It was written without any known incentive or commission during the time that Mozart was composing 'Don Giovanni', a time when he was celebrating his greatest success as an opera composer. The work is one of the jewels of Mozart's output, combining bright radiance and a natural simplicity with brilliant refinement. Similarly, the autograph manuscript of this perfect masterpiece is captivating because of its balanced clarity and beautiful handwriting. The manuscript was inaccessible to the public for almost half a century, but now Bärenreiter has received exclusive permission to produce a new facsimile of Mozart's original. The edition reproduces the facsimile pages as individual sheets and leaves, reflecting the way the original copy has survived. These pages ' in high-quality colour printing, each trimmed individually ' are presented in a handsome box. This is accompanied by a booklet with an introductory text by Wolfgang Rehm including information on the genesis of the composition and the various aspects of the autograph manuscript. 'The fact that it's all over town does not alter anything in the quality of this occasional piece written with ease but skillfully refined.'

He's handsome cunning and utterly merciless. Don Giovanni's lustful desires have left a trail of heartbreak and shattered dreams; but in the wake of a life lived to excess and devoid of honour his day of reckoning finally approaches ... pursued by those he has wronged he is soon to discover the awful consequences of his actions (Opera Queensland review Aug 2003) The premiere of Don Giovanni took place to great public and critical acclaim in Prague on October 29 1787. The Opera is in two acts with a libretto by Lorenzo Da Ponte based on the play by Tirso De Molina. The English version is by W.H. Auden and Chester Kallman.
