Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 1987

'One of the topics for admiring comment was the new translation by Amanda and Anthony Holden. It is witty, crisp as crackling, every bit as clever as it needs to be and--an extremely rare tribute in London--had the audience laughing at lines as much as it was applauding the performances. I hear the new translation may well be published; if it is, buy it.' Melvyn Bragg, Punch Nota bene: this translation was first performed in 1985.

This review is from: Don Giovanni (Dover Opera Libretto Series) (Italian and English Edition) (Paperback)

Don Giovanni is a simply wonderful opera, but for this single-language speaking gal I was at a loss for understanding. I looked high and low for a good translation, finally deciding on this which has side-by-side readings of the opera in itallian and english.

It's easy to read. It has a good introduction and great footnotes that give you a little extra information to take with you as you read. Unlike other companions, it includes every word spoken, so you don't get lost when they repeat themselves!

There's really not much to say about it -- simple, straightfoward, and worth the money.

I am learning Italian. A good opportunity to read the libretto with the English translation. Otherwise a perfect edition. I love it!!
