" "With Vytautas Juozapaitis as a perfectly evil Don Giovanni, the Teatro Lirico d'Europa seduced an audience of about 850 at the Garde Arts Center Monday night. Juozapaitis, a singer with the Lithuanian National Opera, stood out as the despicable title character of this most famous of Mozart operas. He took over the stage with both his supple and strong voice as well as a stage presence that seemed so natural it was hard to look at him without thinking he was Don Giovanni.
Vytautas Juozapaitis (born December 14, 1963, in Radviliskis, Lithuania) is a Lithuanian opera singer (baritone), a soloist of Lithuanian National Opera and Ballet Theatre and Kaunas State Musical Theatre, a professor of Lithuanian Academy of Music and Theatre and a docent of Vilnius College of Higher Education, the recipient of Lithuanian National Prize and all major Lithuanian scene awards.

His seduction of Zerlina, smooth as silk. He had the audience in the palm of his hand.
