Talk:Don Giovanni discography

Commendatore edit

The cast-lists are gravely incomplete without the Commendatore (get it? GRAVELY incomplete, ha ha). Seriously, the Commendatore is a small but ultra-critical role. The three consequential characters in this opera are Don G, Donna Anna, Commendatore. Everyone else is just comic relief. If you wanna shorten the list and leave someone out, leave out Masetto. If you need to cut more, cut Don Ottavio! Both MUCH less important, in the grand scheme of things, than the big guy.

Also, the final entry in the AUDIO list was wrong--wrong conductor (listed "Im"; actually it's Rene Jacobs), other errors too. Besides, it's a contemporary, unpopular recording which most likely won't last, with singers no one has ever heard of. So I deleted it. SingingZombie (talk) 02:30, 25 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

Durations? edit

Could we have what I came here for, the timings of the recordings? JCScaliger (talk) 21:17, 29 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
