The final programme in this series of historic recordings marking the 125th anniversary of the composer's birth features scenes from the operas performed by artists closely associated with Janacek's music.
It includes Kostelnicka's aria from Jenufa interpreted by Gabriela Horvatova who sang the role at the Prague premiere in 1916, a scene from Fate conducted by Bretislav Bakala and the finale from The Cunning Little Vixen performed by the Janacek Theatre, Brno.
