Don Juan from Stockholm
Mozart called him Don Giovanni. A heartless womanizer, he was a rogue and a cad, with no sense of remorse. But Richard Strauss called him Don Juan, and gave him a soul. The story behind Strauss' great tone poem, Don Juan, is in today's show, along with a performance by Daniel Harding and the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra.
