Analysis of the interior action developed in the opera "Don Giovanni", through an approach to the overture, introduction of act I, end and the death of Don Giovanni

Abstract

From a musical-dramatic perspective, this article intends to show a theological approach to the work of Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, through a musical and argumentative analysis, and from the inner action that occurs through the Don Giovanni opera. This first perspective should be considered as a reflection on Mozart´s composition, without attempting to cover the multiple analytical options that could be done about it, but rather as a speculative construction, using what there is available for the opera´s interpretation (musical elements, extra musical elements, textual elements, religious elements). This work aims to reach these elements through the analysis, the theological connection, the musical drama, and the inner action of some excerpts of the opera that will represent death.
