Janacek - Jenufa
Leo Janacek (1858 - 1928) Gabriela Benackova- Leonie Rysanek Wieslaw Ochman - Peter Kazaras Opera Orchestra of New York dir: Eve Queler Bis ( 1988/89) 449/450 2 CD Stereo DDD (excellent sound) Recorded live at the Carnegie Hall, March 30, 1988 [flac & cue, cover, inlays, booklet & disc scans] I can fully understand the reactions described below regarding the effect that Rysanek had on the audience. I was lucky to see her once in my life as Klitemnestra for Hildegard Behrens' Elektra and I will never forget her. The combination of her huge voice with her magnetic scenic presence provoked a visceral reaction of the public where she appeared. I had the same reaction, it was like a catharsis and I was hoarse from yelling brava! like a man possessed. Reviews "I was lucky enough to be inside […]

Abendstern
One of the still-active artists who has meant the most to me during my opera-going life turns 57 on Tuesday. “Trove Thursday” celebrates the thrilling Finnish soprano Karita Matilla in the ultimate diva role—Emilia Marty in Janácek’s Vec Makropulos led by the fine Czech conductor Jirí Belohlávek who died earlier this year at 71. In the midst of all the Renée Fleming “‘will she or won’t she retire” brouhaha this spring I found myself thinking instead about Mattila.
