An introduction to JENŮFA Janáček - Royal Opera House Covent Garden

When a beautiful young woman in rural Moravia becomes unexpectedly pregnant, she learns that love is sometimes only skin-deep.
Asmik Grigorian as Jenůfa in her Covent Garden debut and Karita Mattila as the Kostelnička lead a star cast with Hungarian conductor Henrik Nánási conducting a stunning score infused with traditional folk melodies of Janáček’s native Moravia. Claus Guth’s acclaimed staging - both elegant and open while being utterly claustrophobic and oppressive - captures the great humanity at the heart of the opera.

I saw this yesterday in Rome’s Teatro dell’Opera. Absolutely stunning. The scenery, the actors, the orchestra, everyone did such a fantastic job.

I saw this last Saturday and it was electric.

I have seen it once and then, at that time, I was struggeling by all that war things. You have to cope with it or, when you are not in the mood for such an opera leave it until you are ready for it; or bit by bit, just like Wagner. Bit by bit will do.😎
