Opera in three acts Composed by Leoš Janácek Revised version by Jiri Zahrádka
Brian Robertson, director Vinay Parameswaran, guest conductor
Based on a famous 1920s Czech comic strip, Janácek’s opera The Cunning Little Vixen explores the universal longing for youth and purpose, through the lens of philosophical reflection on the cycle of life. The Vixen, a fox, and the Forester’s intertwined stories, are reflective of the surrealist movement blossoming in the 1920’s. Their journeys share the conflict of irrational worlds, dreams, and desires, weathered in the animal and human experience. Sung in Czech.
