Johan Reuter Johan Reuter Johan Reuter (born 1969) is a Danish baritone and opera singer. Reuter was born in Copenhagen. He studied at the Royal Danish Academy of Music and at the Royal Danish Opera Academy. He has been a member of the ensemble at the Royal Danish Opera since 1996. His principal appearances at the Royal Danish Opera are the Mozart roles Leporello and Don Giovanni in "Don Giovanni", Figaro in "Le nozze di Figaro", Papageno in "Die Zauberflöte" and Guglielmo in "Così fan tutte", the Verdi roles Posa in "Don Carlo" and the title roles in "Macbeth" and "Simon Boccanegra",
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and Prague pointed out how precarious opera production was in the city throughout the eighteenth century. Indeed, productions of Italian opera in Prague ceased again already in 1789, not to re-appear again until 1791, due to the departure of the impresario Domenico Guardasoni and the death of the impresario Pasquale Bondini. Another possible reason why Mozart didn't stay is given by Volkmar Braunbehrens, citing Schenk: the death in Vienna in November 1787 of Gluck, whose post in the Imperial musical establishment Mozart sought (and ultimately got, though at a much lower salary); Mozart needed to return home to lobby for the position.
