## Commentary

Max Slevogt was, quite literally, the most musical of the German proto-Expressionists. His dashing, theatrical canvases have a sense of personal, turbulent drama, of romantic sentiment restated in a more freewheeling technique. Responsive to the great musical heritage of Austria and Germany, Slevogt illustrated an edition of Mozart&#39;s Magic Flute and portrayed Francisco d&#39;Andrade in the title role of another of the composer&#39;s great operas, Don Giovanni. &lt;p&gt; &lt;table align=left cellpadding=5 border=1 width=320 bgcolor=&#34;\#99cccc&#34;&gt; &lt;tr valign=middle&gt;&lt;td&gt;&lt;img src=&#34;/support/gif/listen.gif&#34; border=0 valign=middle&gt; Suggested listening \(streaming mp3, 6 minutes\):&lt;br&gt;&lt;a href=&#34;\#&#34; onClick=&#34;w=window.open \(&#39;/music1/mozart/mozart\_don\_giovanni\_scene\_1.html&#39;, &#39;newWin&#39;, &#39;scrollbars=yes,status=no,dependent=yes,screenX=0,screenY=0,width=350,height=350&#39;\);w.opener=this;w.focus\(\);return true&#34;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Don Giovanni, Act I, Scene 1&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt; &lt;/td&gt;&lt;/tr&gt;&lt;/table&gt;
