Don Giovanni is not just the story of a punished sinner, nor is it a simple musical. It is a uniquely dramatic work in which even seemingly typical comedic situations, which in other operas appear light and uncommitted, have a harsh effect and heighten the overall tension.
Giovanni eventually gets his comeuppance, though in the end the question of who actually condemned and punished him remains open: God, people, or, as Jozef Bednárik, the director of the title suggests, his own soul?
Although Mozart in no way deviates from the classical compositional style, in no way breaks the strict stylistic “regulation”, he nevertheless gives the work a clear stamp of originality that is not repeated in the operatic literature.
