I went to see Don Giovanni at the opera in Gent at 30/12/2025.

It was an unforgettable experience.

It is amazing the human experience has already been described so well by people from such a long time ago, and in such a beautiful manor; so much better then I ever will be able to experience, let alone share to others. Yet, here is Don Giovanni, by Mozart and Lorenzo Da Ponte.

So much has already been written about this opera, then I can ever do justice to. And so, I created just one small video fragment, based on just one aria, reusing the performance by Opus Arte from 2014. It took me two months to get to this point, Mozart is such an amazing artist!

This is an aria about the unescapable forces we shape and fall prey to, an aria about the light we seek for and the shadow it casts upon us. There are other interesting forces within this opera which I may get back to later. Until then, please enjoy this beautiful aria.
