As a harbinger of the seventh year of the festival, after a two-year hiatus, the very successful production of Janáček's Její pastorkyně, directed by Martin Glaser and set to music by Marko Ivanović, returns to the repertoire of the opera company. 
NdB is part of Opera Vision, and the production of Její pastorkyně will be Brno's next contribution to this project, through which audiences from all over the world can get to know Janáček's work.
The block of three performances of Její pastorkyně will begin live streaming on Opera Vision on October 2, 2019.
At the beginning of Janáček's most famous opera was Gabriela Preissová's realistic drama, which the composer himself adapted into the form of an opera libretto. Although he had to significantly shorten the text of the drama, he succeeded in deepening the effect of the tragic story from the Moravian countryside. The spendthrift and fickle Števa, the violent, yet at heart kind Laca, and above all the relentless Kostelnička, whose efforts to maintain her position and respect in the village community will lead her to murder the child of her shelter, Jenůfa. Janáček captured the individual characters in a masterly dramatic shorthand that is chilling and at the same time evokes compassion and understanding in us.
