Mozart had a special relationship with Prague and the people of Prague. The audience here celebrated their Figaro with the much deserved reverence he was missing in his hometown Vienna. His quote “Meine Prager verstehen mich” (My Praguers understand me) became very famous in the Bohemian lands. Many tourists follow his tracks in Prague and visit the Mozart Museum of the Villa Bertramka where they can enjoy a chamber concert. In Prague, Don Giovanni premiered on October 29, 1787 at the Theatre of the Estates. In the later years of his life, Prague provided Mozart many financial resources from commissions. German poet Eduard Mörike’s well-known novella Mozart auf der Reise nach Prag (”Mozart on the way to Prague”) is a fantasy about the composer’s trip to that city in order to present Don Giovanni (the story, however, relates episodes that happen along the way, not in Prague itself).
