Text Appearing Before Image:
s toput them on the right track. Then follows a series of amusing situations, ending with thecapture of the supposed Don by the three conspirators, but it proves to be Leporello, whotakes advantage of the situation to make his escape. Ottavio then sings his best air, // miotesoro. II mio tesoro (Fly Then, My Love) By John McCormack, Tenor (In Italian) 74484 12-inch, $1.50 Ottavio: Fly then, my love, entreating, To calm her anxious fears;Oh, still her hearts wild beating, And wipe away her tears.Tell her Ill vengeance take On him who slew her sire;This arm his grave shall make, Or Ill by his expire. The next scene shows the Cathedral Square, with the statue of the murdered Com-mandant in the centre. The Don and Leporello enter, and are discussing the events of theevening, when the statue speaks to them. Leporello is terrified, but the Don defies all spiritsand boldly invites the statue to supper. * Double-Faced Record—See page 95. 94 VICTROLA BOOK OF THE OPERA —MOZARTS DON GIOVANNI
Text Appearing After Image:
VIX AS ELVIRA (OPERA COMIQUE) The scenechanges to thebanquet hall,where in themidst of the fes-tivities a loudknocking isheard. Theguests flee in ter-ror, as the gigan-tic figure of theCom mandantappears. Leporellocowers in terror,but Don Giovanniis defiant untilthe ghost seizeshis hand, whenhe feels for thefirst time a terri-ble fear. Thestatue sinks,flames appear onall sides, and de-mons rise andseize the guilty-libertine.
