ARTHUR FAGEN, MUSIC DIRECTOR OF THE ATLANTA OPERA, EARNED OUTSTANDING REVIEWS ON DON GIOVANNI
On May Mr. Fagen conducted Mozart’s Don Giovanni, last production of the season of the Atlanta Opera. His conducting got high praise in one of the most prestigious opera magazines, Opera News:
…the most stellar aspect of the production was conductor Arthur Fagen’s presence on the podium. The past six years have seen a string of guest conductors at the opera, some fantastic and others forgettable. But Atlanta Opera has at last committed to an internationally recognized music director who has the ability to bring out the best from the musicians in the pit. The AO orchestra played seamlessly and with momentum on this night.
