a| This is one of the early German translations/Arrangements, in bilingual vocal score. Dramaturges and translators quickly turned Don Giovanni into a Singspiel with spoken dialogue instead of recitatives, and it was in this form that most German theatre-goers got to know the opera until the middle of the nineteenth century. The very first singing translation, by the Bonn composer Christian Gottlob Neefe, was comparatively true to Da Ponte’s original (Magnus Tessing Schneider, The Original Portrayal of Mozart's Don Giovanni, Routledge, 2022)

a| Neefe prepared the first known German adaptation of the opera in 1788 for performances in Mannheim and Bonn in 1789. His adaptation was further revised with scenes added by the local dramaturge Heinrich Gottlieb Schmieder (1763-1815) for performance in Mainz and Frankfurt in 1789, by Friedrich Ludwig Schröder (1744-1816) for Hamburg in late 1789.

a| Don Giovanni was premiered in Prague, 1787.

a| Part of a collection owned by Priscilla Anne Wellesley-Pole (1793-1879) who became Lady Burghersh, later Countess of Westmorland. This lady was from childhood associated with many of the great figures of the day. In 1811, at the age of eighteen, she married John Fane (=Lord Burghersh) one of the future Duke of Wellington's A. D. C.'s, and later 11th Earl of Westmorland and founder of the Royal Academy of Music in 1822. He was a great music lover who devoted most of his leisure hours to the study of music, was a good violinist and a prolific composer.
