Power and Expressiveness

Janácek's 'Katya Kabanova',
reviewed by ROBERT HUGILL

 

My first experiences of Janácek's Katya Kabanova were in Scotland in the late 70s/early 80s. There I was in the relatively small confines of the King's Theatre in Edinburgh and the Theatre Royal in Glasgow. The impact this opera can make in a smaller theatre is difficult to reproduce in the open spaces of the London Coliseum...
