About

With this disc Naxos completes its acclaimed recordings of Peter Breiner’s powerful and evocative orchestral suites from Janácek’s operas.

In very different ways, The Cunning Little Vixen and From the House of the Dead both reflect on love and loneliness, life and death, good, evil and the human condition, with some of the composer’s most effective music.
