Czech Philharmonic Orchestra
Sir Charles Mackerras conductor
Sir Charles Mackerras is known and respected worldwide as a leading connoisseur, champion and editor of Janáček´s compositional output. He is now documenting his lifelong profound artistic and scholarly attachment to Janáček´s music by a new complete set of recordings of Janáček´s orchestral output. On a 2CD set the Czech Philharmonic does its best to fulfill Sir Charles´s concept and creative intentions. The list of works featured here was supplemented by overtures to the operas, Káťa Kabanová (plus short interludes), and Šárka. Sir Charles Mackerras has had a particularly close, thoroughly personal affinity for these last-mentioned works: he actually discovered the Káťa Kabanová interludes while studying Janáček´s manuscripts, whereupon he prepared a critical edition of the opera for publication by the Universal Edition of Vienna, in 1992/3. Similarly, he undertook editorial supervision over the processing of the score of Šárka. He then produced the opera´s recent recording which obtained nominations in two categories for Grammy awards in 2001. Mackerras´s Janáček occupies a pride of place in the Supraphon catalogue. Here is a complete set not to be missed by any aficionado of music by the Moravian genius composer.
