Some of you cher public will no doubt see the pendulum as swinging too far in the other direction, but La Cieca finds this particularly convincing and exciting deptiction of the relationship between Don Giovanni and Leporello a refreshing change of pace after the listless staging of Mozart’s masterpiece currently in the Met’s repertory. The men are Simon Keenlyside and Kyle Ketelsen; they are eventually joined by Veronique Gens as Donna Elvira.
