Scene from: The Makropulos Case

Composer: Leos Janácek
Conductor: Andrew Davis

Glyndebourne's first production of Janácek's Makropulos Case, directed by Nikolaus Lehnhoff, and with set designs by Tobias Hoheisel, has been unanimously hailed by the press. Brian Large directs the production for television which finds perfect imagery for the nemesis which the 337-year-old herorine Emilia Marty, sung by Anja Silja, endures. Andrew Davis conducts the London Philharmonic.

"one of the most electrifying performances I've ever witnessed ... see it, cherish it and tell your grandchildren"
Independent on Sunday

"I am lost for superlatives ... perhaps heart-stopping, soul shattering, out-of-body experience will have to do, to describe this brilliant new production"
Spectator.
