Don Giovanni was premiered five months after Mozart's father's death. The play Amadeus made a big deal of this, no doubt the death affected Mozart very deeply. A father is killed right at the start of the Opera. The murdered father later comes and carries Don Giovanni off to hell. All very Freudian stuff. The oppressive Leopold standing over his son, never letting him be his own man. And lo and behold Mozart dies three and a half years after his dad. All very depressing. And sad. Was Leopold poisoned? maybe we should start the rumour.
