Intérprete: Wesley Harrison

The Canadian Opera Company’s season opening production is musically excellent, but the dated, dull production adds little. 

After more than a quarter of a century, Janáček’s late masterpiece returns to the Canadian Opera Company, but falls short in charm, magic, and humour.

Canadian Opera Company’s revival of John Caird’s art-infused production is perfectly realised in singing, acting, and the orchestra’s vibrant yet velvety colours.
