Based on an iIIustrated tale pubIished as a newspaper seriaI, this fanciful opera is one of Jan'c''ek's true masterworks at once charming, frightening, tragic and, in the end, Iife-affirming. The Cunning LittIe Vixen has been seldom staged in Italy, and this FIorence production stars Seiji Ozawa as conductor and Laurent PelIy as stage director and costume designer. The cast of unbelievable 13 soloists is lead on by the Armenian/Canadian soprano star Isabel Bayrakdarian as a sensuaI Bystrou ka (vixen) and American Quinn KeIsey as the brash yet refIective Gamekeeper. This production received rave reviews for beautifuIly bringing to Iife on stage the opera's fantasy world of animaI protagonists. This is a work that can be enjoyed by not only classical music fans but by anyone, from chiId to aduIt. |
