Come be mesmerized by a poignant and heart-wrenching tale of the game of love and loss, of deceit and murder and the ultimate triumph of grim justice in the end. Come get your tickets to see the opera Jenufa live! It is based on the play called Její pastorkyňa by Gabriela Preissován and was written as an opera with three acts by Leo Janáček. The most striking feature of this opera is the unflinching realism that is apparent throughout this piece. In his distinct style, Janáček brings across the harshness of reality in the face of unrequited love and the best intentions. Though at the time the orchestration and style was considered eccentric, it was very well received and continues to be popular today.
The story is set in a Moravian village in the 19th century. The background of the characters is thus- the only descendants of the mill-owners family are the second wife of one of his sons, Jenufa the daughter of that son, Steva her cousin and Laca, Steva's half brother. According to custom, the mill will go to Steva and the other two must fend for themselves. Under these already difficult circumstances, we find that Jenufa is not only in love with Steva but she is also carrying his illegitimate child. Laca is in love with Jenufa but frustrated by the attention she pays to Steva.
When the opera opens, Jenufa is worried sick that Steva has been drafted into the army. However he soon arrives, completely drunk with a gang of soldiers. He boasts of his prowess with women and pulls Jenufa into a dance. Unable to stand this rowdiness any longer, Jenufa's stepmother intervenes and says that the two will not be able to marry until Steva can stay sober for a year. Steva is unaware of Jenufa's pregnancy and behaves casually. Later Laca enters and tries to convince Jenufa of Steva's bad character but she is unrelenting and in a rage, Laca slashes Jenufa's cheeks.
