New Palace Opera: Káťa Kabanová
July 19 @ 6:30 pm – 9:00 pm
New Palace Opera, conducted by Michael Thorne, present a concert performance of Leoš Janáček’s opera, Káťa Kabanová.
This story of one woman’s bid for escape from her suffocating community reflects the composer’s unrequited love for a woman resembling Katya herself. Janáček once wrote, “Katya’s suffering is my own,” bringing forth from the Czech composer a work of lacerating intensity, compelling tension and wondrous lyricism.
This concert performance will be sung in English, with translation by Norman Tucker.
