Description:L'Empio Punito is the first opera where the character of Don Giovanni (Acrimante) makes his appearance. It was first premiered in Rome on February 17th, 1669 and this release is the recording of the first modern times performance that took place at the historical Teatro di Villa Torlonia in Rome in October 2019, 350 years after it's debut. The fundamental dramaturgical lines that characterize the following versions, in particular Mozart's, are already here: the complicity between Acrimante (Don Giovanni) and Bibi (Leporello); the despair of Atamira (Donna Elvira), abandoned by Acrimante; Acrimante's attempt to seduce Ipomene (Donna Anna), betrothed to Cloridoro (Don Ottavio); the duel between Acrimante and Tidemo (Commendatore) and the latter's death at Acrimante's hand; the graveyard scene, where Acrimante invites Tidemo's statue to dinner; the eternal damnation of Acrimante and the finale, in which all the main characters appear. As Conductor Alessandro Quarta points out, Acrimante's seductive power brings chaos and pain in the lives of the other characters but a lot of energy as well. "[Acrimante's] sentimental and emotional disorder disrupts the personality of the other characters who revolve around him He messes them up, makes them suffer and makes them behave in relation to the turmoil he creates".
"L'Empio Punito" on Blu-ray by Dynamic presents one of the earliest operatic interpretations of the Don Juan (Don Giovanni) legend, offering a fascinating historical counterpart to later, more widely known versions. This high-definition release captures a fully staged performance with careful attention to both musical and dramatic detail, making it particularly appealing for opera enthusiasts, collectors of rare repertoire, and scholars of baroque and early-classical theater. The Blu-ray format enhances the visual richness of the staging--costumes, lighting, and scenic design are rendered with clarity that allows viewers to appreciate nuances often lost in standard-definition recordings, while the multi-channel audio mix preserves orchestral color, vocal blend, and spatial depth in the theater.

Dynamic is a specialist classical music label and production company renowned for discovering and documenting lesser-known operas, rarities from major composers, and fresh productions from important European opera houses and festivals. Based in Italy, the label has built a strong reputation among collectors for bringing to light unjustly neglected works, complete critical editions, and first video recordings of rarely staged titles. Dynamic releases are known for their meticulous production values, scholarly approach to repertoire selection, and a consistent focus on artistic integrity, often giving modern audiences access to operas and performances that would otherwise remain confined to archives or a single live run.

The cast of this "L'Empio Punito" production gathers experienced singers and stage artists with a solid background in baroque and early-classical repertoire, often heard at prominent European opera houses and festivals specializing in historically informed performance. The principal soloists are recognized for their stylish phrasing, agility in coloratura passages, and refined text delivery, with careers that include leading roles in works by Handel, Mozart, and other major composers of the 17th and 18th centuries. The conductor is a specialist in this period, known for collaborations with distinguished early-music ensembles and for interpretations that balance dramatic impulsiveness with rhythmic precision and transparent textures. Stage direction and visual concept are crafted by a director whose career includes notable work in baroque opera revivals, praised for intelligent storytelling, attention to characterization, and an ability to make historically rooted works vividly accessible to contemporary audiences.

This Blu-ray edition is designed for viewers who value both the musical and the dramaturgical dimension of opera. The combination of Dynamic's curatorial vision, the commitment of the singers and orchestra to stylistic authenticity, and a thoughtful staging makes this release a significant document of "L'Empio Punito." It offers a rare opportunity to explore an important step in the evolution of the Don Juan myth on stage and to deepen understanding of the rich operatic culture that flourished well before the classical canon as it is commonly known today.
