With the opening of the 19th season of the Livermore Valley Opera, (LVO) audiences of the growing regional opera company will have the opportunity to experience a contemporary interpretation of the classic Mozart opera, Don Giovanni, as realized by noted Stage Director, Mark Streshinsky, Artistic Director of West Edge Opera.
The Contra Costa Times review of Streshinsky’s Don Giovanni said, “The production's utter faithfulness to the music, coupled with a dazzling creativity in interpreting the psychology and spirit of the opera, merit high praise.”
The October production of Don Giovanni will reunite the experienced opera trio of Streshinsky, LVO Music Director and Conductor, Alexander Katsman, and formidable rising star, baritone Eugene Brancoveanu, known to LVO audiences as Count Almaviva in The Marriage of Figaro (March, 2009) and who the San Francisco Chronicle calls "extravagantly gifted." Earlier this year, this trio worked together for West Edge Opera’s Don Giovanni.
