The complete presentation of Leoš Janáček’s operas during the 10th edition of the festival is a unique opportunity to enjoy not only his mature masterpieces but also works that are rarely performed on stage today. Alongside Janáček’s debut opera Šárka, this includes his second opera The Beginning of a Romance, a work deeply influenced by the period of his intense engagement with folk music.
