WELCOME Hello, and welcome to the School of Music’s latest streaming presentation, Mozart’s Don Giovanni. We are so excited to share this performance with you!

First, I want to thank all of the students, faculty, and staff who have worked

tirelessly to make this possible. As our college continues to rise to the challenges of these times, our performing arts students thrive, delivering some of the most heartfelt and thought-provoking performances of their academic careers. We are demonstrating one thing loud and clear: the arts are active, vibrant, and resilient here at Cal State Fullerton.

Just as the arts continue to adapt and evolve, so are our students. These Titans of the Arts – unwavering in their passion and commitment to their craft – are the reason we do what we do as educators, administrators, and staff. I look forward to seeing theatre, dance, and music students rehearsing throughout the performing arts building, and visual arts students creating in the breezeways and art courtyard once again. It’s so quiet here without them! Until we see each other again face-toface, stay safe and stay strong. We hope you enjoy the show!

Sincerely,

Dale A. Merrill Dean, College of the Arts

SUMMARY P PLOT LOT S UMMARY

Act I Late at night, Leporello is waiting for his master, Don Giovanni, outside the home of Donna Anna. Suddenly Don Giovanni is chased out of the house by Donna Anna, who wants to know the identity of the man who forced his way into her room and attempted to seduce her. Her father, the Commendatore, awakes and challenges the intruder to a duel.

Meanwhile, Donna Anna has gone for her fiancé, Don Ottavio. When they return together, they find her father dead and the killer gone. The two swear vengeance upon the murderer.

The next morning, Leporello urges Don Giovanni to mend his ways.

But just then, Don Giovanni spots a beautiful woman complaining about her faithless lover. He approaches her - and is stunned to discover that she is his wife, Donna Elvira, whom he deserted after three days of marriage. Don Giovanni has Leporello distract Elvira and runs away.

Leporello tells Elvira the truth about his master and all his affairs.

Leporello and Don Giovanni pass by a wedding celebration for two villagers, Zerlina and Masetto. Don Giovanni is immediately interested in the bride. He suggests that the party be moved to his palace nearby and remains behind with Zerlina. She is prepared to give herself to him when Donna Elvira arrives and spoils Don Giovanni’s plan.

During a walk, Donna Anna and Don Ottavio meet Don Giovanni. They ask for his assistance to clear up the terrible events of the night, and Don Giovanni offers his help. Donna Anna realizes that it was Don Giovanni who forced his way into her room and who killed her father.

The marriage celebration continues at Don Giovanni’s palace. Zerlina finally succeeds in making up with Masetto, only to lose his trust again when Don Giovanni pursues her again. Elvira in the meantime has joined forces with Don Ottavio and Donna Anna against Don Giovanni. They arrive at the palace, masked, in order to expose him. Don Giovanni succeeds in dragging Zerlina with him, but when she cries for help and frees herself, he pretends Leporello assaulted her. The masked guests reveal their identities and accuse Don Giovanni. He runs away with his servant Leporello.

P LPLOT O T SSUMMARY UMMARY

Act II Evening. Don Giovanni is now interested in Donna Elvira’s chambermaid. To better his chances, he changes clothes with Leporello.

Leporello, pretending to be the Don, distracts and runs off with Donna Elvira.

Again, Don Giovanni’s plans are spoiled, this time by Masetto and his friends searching for Don Govanni to take their revenge on him.

As “Leporello” Don Giovanni gets rid of the friends, beats up Masetto, and runs off.

Zerlina finds Masetto and takes him home.

Don Giovanni and Leporello meet each other in a churchyard, in front of a statue of the Commendatore. Don Giovanni tells Leporello of his adventures in disguise, but suddenly the statue comes to life, warning Don Giovanni to renounce his wicked ways. Don Giovanni forces the terrified Leporello to invite the statue home for supper.

The statue accepts.

Don Giovanni begins to eat by himself, but soon the statue arrives.

Don Giovanni is given one last chance to repent, but he refuses. He is condemned and perishes.

Don Ottavio, Donna Anna, Donna Elvira, Masetto, and Zerlina arrive— but Don Giovanni has ceased to exist. Donna Elvira vows to enter a convent. Donna Anna asks Don Ottavio to wait another year for her.

Leporello considers going to the nearest inn to find himself another master. Masetto and Zerlina go home—finally united.

S T ASTAGE G E D IDIRECTOR’S R E C T O R ’ SNO NTE OTE

Like many projects developed during these trying times, Don

Giovanni, too, went through quite a singular birth process. But here we are: CSUF’s School of Music Opera Theatre, in collaboration with the Department of Theatre and Dance, is bringing you Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s dramma giocoso Don Giovanni in the quad!

I want to express our deepest gratitude to the Dean of the College of the Arts, Dale Merrill, who without his continuous and unwavering support, patience, diplomacy, endurance and vision, Don Giovanni would not have happened. This applies equally to his team: Dr. Katherine Powers, Director of the School of Music, never gave up her positive outlook on things and was constantly on the hunt for solutions. COTA Associate Dean Arnold Holland knew all the rules and what questions to ask. I can only say that this is a team that can move mountains, and move them safely!

This production was initially scheduled for April 2020 and a mere three weeks before we were to open, everything ended and the pandemic began. But everyone involved from the students to the directors and collaborators didn't want all that work to have been in vain, and “necessity became the mother of invention!”

During the process many, many new lessons were learned: the staging had to be adapted to Covid, costumes were minimized to follow the no contact rule, the same with lighting. Singers and instrumentalists had to individually pre-record themselves, and the Theatre Sound Department for the first time ever, after countless hours of painstaking work, put together a complete operatic orchestra score this way.

Many, many thanks also to an incredible support team: from the voice teachers to the coaches, the different shops: costumes and make up, design, construction and paint, props, to the guidance of the Covid team, they all did an incredible job. My deepest thanks also to our conductor Prof. Kimo Furomoto, for his patience and sensitivity, and for never giving up, and to Mark Salters, head of CSUF Opera Theatre. Mark’s tremendous focus and quiet steady force, and his quick thinking found fast and excellent solutions to many problems.

During the performance the singers will be lip-syncing to the prerecorded orchestra tracks, but, here we are: Don Giovanni is happening and involving a tremendous number of students from all artistic departments, allowing them to do what they dream of doing: creating art.

Enjoy the performance!
