Leos Janacek: Jenufa by Bernard Haitink on CD
It says a lot for Janacek's growing presence in the operatic mainstream that Jenufa, which waited more than a decade for its "big city" premiere in Prague, and which existed for many years only in an edited and re-orchestrated version by Karel Kovarovic, now has multiple recordings using the original score -- and good ones, at that. This live recording from Covent Garden is truly wonderful, and it joins Charles Mackerras' 1982 recording of his own re-construction as a first choice for anyone interested in the work. Karita Mattila shines in the title role, exploiting every brief moment of lyricism that emerges from Janacek's speech-inflected score. Her suffering and betrayal at the hands of her family, and her eventual forgiveness of those hurts, is extremely moving. Jorma Silvasti is similarly believable as the jealous and rueful Laca. Although the bloom is gone from her voice, Anja Silja is perfectly cast as Jenufa's stepmother; her genuine shame and despair at her murder of Jenufa's child allows their final reconciliation to take on a humanity that it would not if she were played with less sympathy. Jerry Hadley is perfectly unlikable in the role of Steva -- a man so shallow that he would forsake the mother of his child over a scar on her cheek; his singing is excellent, as is his handling of the Czech language. Finally, Bernard Haitink deserves complements for leading such a tidy and well articulated performance. His balancing of orchestral colors and attention to pace make the score sound deceptively straightforward; the few moments when the orchestra overbalances the singers are an inevitable problem of live recordings, and shouldn't bother most listeners. The package comes with excellent notes and a full libretto. ~ Allen Schrott, Rovi
