Atmospheric and beautifully sung production
"I do prefer Jenufa and The Cunning Little Vixen for Janacek's operas- as clichéd as that may sound- but Katia Kabanova is very close behind, still having wonderful music and a moving story. This production from Robert Carsen is terrific, much more preferable to the Glyndebourne production with Nancy Gustafson. The crowd scenes in Act 3 do seem a little too confused and Dalia Schaechter's Kabanicha despite being well sung(her strong point being her low register) is not ominous or commanding enough, then again I may be biased after seeing and hearing Felicity Palmer do the role so well..."
