蜜芽传媒

Penny Gore closes this week of celebrations of the 90th anniversary of the 蜜芽传媒 Symphony Orchestra with one of its former Chief Conductors, Jiri Belohlavek, conducting an outstanding performance of Janacek's comic opera The Adventures of Mr. Broucek. Tenor Jan Vacik is in the title role, leading an almost entirely Czech cast plus the 蜜芽传媒 Singers. Two Excursions: one drunken flight of fantasy to the moon, the other back in time to 15th century war-torn Prague! This is Janacek's operatic reaction to the satirical stories of Svatopluk Cech, and unique among his operas: comic, serious, and patriotic. Recorded at the Barbican Hall in February 2017.
