Beschreibung
The Stone Guest by Alexander Sergeevich Dargomyzhsky (1813–1869), set to the text of Alexander Sergeevich Pushkin’s Little Tragedy of the same name, is one of the most salient, original and innovative works in the classical Russian operatic repertoire. It is based on the legend of Don Juan, the seducer from Seville, which has been reworked many times in literature.
The opera lacks the major traditional forms usually found in this genre: arias, ensembles, choruses. The only exceptions are Laura’s two interpolated songs which were written before the composition of the opera.
