Jenůfa can be called one of JANÁČEK's finest operas, and is performed for the first time at the NNTT. JANÁČEK wrote most of his operas based on the inflections and rhythms of the Moravian dialect, his collections of its folk songs, and his research on it. Jenůfa is one such opera.
This is the first appearance at the NNTT of the young, up-and-coming Czech-born conductor, Tomáš HANUS. The production is by Christof LOY, whose many accolades include the Director of the Year award from the German opera magazine, Opernwelt. The production is from the 2012 performance by the Deutsche Oper Berlin. The main cast is of singers with a history of performing this production.
