Lafayette Senior Services presents...

Discovering
Opera: Mozart’s Don Giovanni .
with Bradford
Wade, opera lover for 35 years

Yes, it’s the story of Don Juan,
the seducer whose servant keeps an extensive catalog of his conquests, and who announces his intent to add ten more names to the catalog before the night is over—but winds up getting dragged down to Hell by the come-to-life statue of the man he killed early in the first act. Lecturer Bradford Wade will give a
guided tour of the opera, with a description of the plot interspersed with
musical examples. This lecture is given in conjunction with Opera San Jose's production of Don Giovanni, April 19-May 4.
