A BBC Radio 3 broadcast of Karel Ancerl directing the _Glagolitic Mass_ acquainted me with Leoš Janáček at 18. I was hugely impressed, and still appreciate him at 72. His published letters to his much younger, married muse, Kamila Stösslová, illustrate the composer's lifelong need to project strong romantic feelings, which in turn fuelled a late outpouring of astounding music.
Thank you MURAKAMI! Because of you I discovered Janacek, and then Smetana and Dvorak... After reading Kundera passionately. I’m learning the language and I’m planning to move to Czech Republic very soon...

I really enjoyed this, thanks!
Janacek's operatic and choral works are hunting, my love and respect for his music is beyond this world
since I started to listen to his in the mists, I couldn't stop loving him!
Thank you MURAKAMI!

Explore puppetry and the history of puppetry in the Czech Republic...amazing tradition there. Also, Svankmajer and stop-motion animation.

Magic, mysterious and unique Music. Janáček was a real genius, one of the greatest composers of the XXth century.
