Description
This study is the first in English to offer a detailed and accurate companion to Janáček's mature, serious operas. The introduction describes the essential conditions for tragedy and shows how Janáček realized its characteristic effect in the musical idiom of his opera. The individual chapters discuss the human issues raised by the libretti and the ways in which Janáček's music communicates what he has to say about them. Each chapter gives a commentary on the action of the opera as it unfolds, providing an interpretation of each significant point in both the music and the stage drama.
