The motto of the 10th edition of the festival is “Roots”, and it is precisely to these roots that the Brno ensemble’s premiere contribution is directed. This time, in the form of a site-specific production in the Besední dům – a venue closely connected with Janáček’s role in Brno’s cultural life – we return to the very beginning of the Master’s operatic work.
