Soul drama between duty and freedom
A tense calm before the storm - a disastrous storm of emotions that Katja Kabanova does not feel up to. She is having a secret affair with Boris, who is very different from her weak-willed husband Tichon. But how long can their love carry them through the bigoted everyday life in which her cold-hearted mother-in-law calls the shots?
His story is "full of music from the depths of the heart", said composer Leoš Janáček about this opera, and with this work he emerges as a sensitive psychological music dramatist.
