Jenufa: Deutsche Oper Berlin

About the Event

Donald Runnicles conducts Christof Loy's production of Leos Janacek's 'Jenufa' at the Deutsche Oper Berlin.

Strictures and bigotry, tradition and control… rural life in a Moravian village smouldering under a burning glass. We follow the fortunes of the characters through the changing of the seasons, are witness to a sweltering summer followed by a brutal winter. In early spring we are presented with a happy occasion that is soon soured. The tragic wedding ends in a confession of guilt.
