Tracklist

Don Giovanni. A dramma giocoso in 2 acts
Overture / Night and day I slave away / I'll risk my life for a seducer's reward / Let her go, you villain! (Notte e giorno faticar / Non sperar, se non m'uccidi / Lasciala, indegno!) / What do I see, my God! Such a dreadful sight / I shall continue to reproach you, traitor (Ma qual mai s'offre, oh Dei, spettacolo funesto / Fuggi, crudele, fuggi) / Well then, say quickly what you wish / Oh, how I would love to know where the wretched traitor is / Who's there? What do I see? (Orsu, spicciati presto. Cosa voi? / Ah chi mi dice mai, quel barbaro dov'e / Chi e la? Stelle, che vedo!) / My lady, this is the amusing list (Madamina, il catalogo e questo) / And you, dear young girls / Thank God we are alone / I understand well what my master wants (Giovinette che fate all'amore / Manco male e partita / Ho capito, Signor, si) / Well, we are finally alone / There I'll give you my hand, my dear (Alfin siam liberati / La ci darem la mano) / Stop, you shameful seducer! / He is a traitor and a liar / Today, wherever I go, the devil follows (Fermati, scellerato! / Ah! fuggi il traditor / Mi par ch'oggi il demonio si diverta) / Oh, do not trust the enticing images (Non ti fidar, o misera) / Don Ottavio, I am dying! / Now you know your rival (Don Ottavio, son morta! / Or sai chi l'onore) / How can I believe it / Oh, banish your sorrows, for you will find peace (Come mai creder deggio / Dalla sua pace la mia dipende) / And whatever may happen / Until the red wine confuses their heads (Io deggio ad ogni patto / Finch' han dal vino calda la testa) / Masetto, just listen, Masetto, I say / Oh, just hit me, my Masetto (Masetto, senti un po'! Masetto dico / Batti, batti, o bel Masetto) / Just look at what she can do / Quickly, quickly, before he arrives (Guarda un po', come seppe questa strega / Presto, presto, pria ch'ei venga) / My dears, let us be strong / Protect us, oh eternal God (Bisogna aver coraggio / Protegga il giusto cielo)
Don Giovanni. A dramma giocoso in 2 acts
Oh, you girls, stop your dancing / Please come further in / Look at the scoundrel (Riposate, vezzose ragazze / Venite pur avanti / Ecco il birbo) / Don't grumble so (Eh via, buffone) / Oh hush, my dear heart / So, what do you say to that? (Ah taci, ingiusto core / Amico, che ti par?) / Oh appear at the window, you sweet-scented bud (Deh vieni alla finestra, o mio tesoro) / Just carry on calmly / You go that way to the right / So we are to kill him (Non ci stanchiamo / Meta di voi qua vadano / Zitto, lascia ch'io senta) / Oh, oh, my head! / My dear little beetle, my poor boy (Ahi, ahi, la testa mia! / Vedrai, carino, se sei buonino) / Look, they are coming with torches / Alone in this dark colonnade (Di molte faci il lume / Sola, sola in buio loco) / So, it was you? / Have pity on my boy / Stop the scoundrel, after him! (Dunque quello sei tu / Ah pieta, signori miei / Ferma, perfido, ferma!) / Just banish the sadness from your face (Il mio tesoro intanto) / Ha ha, ha ha ha, a good hiding place! (Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, questa e buona) / Oh noble, sublime statue (O statua gentilissima) / Just calm yourself, my dear / May you always have it, my love (Calmatevi, idol mio / Non mi dir, bell'idol mio) / It is time to eat, to feast / I hope for my wretched love's last trial (Gia la mensa e preparata / L'ultima prova dell'amor mio) / Don Giovanni, you invited me to this banquet (Don Giovanni, a cenar teco m'invitasti) / Oh, where is that traitor? (Ah dove il perfido?)
