Batti Batti O Bel Masetto MOZART WOLFGANG AMADEUS

Classique

Description :

Batti, Batti, O Bel Masetto is taken from the Opera Don Giovanni. Don Giovanni is widely regarded as one of the greatest pieces of music ever composed, and of the many operas based on the legend of Don Juan, Mozart's is thought to be beyond comparison. The opera was billed as dramma giocoso or playful drama, belonging to a genre neither completely comic nor completely tragic. In the original production the actors alternated between spoken recitative and sung aria, but most modern productions use the secco-recitatives composed by Mozart in place of the spoken text.
