- Sir Charles Mackerras is respected throughout the world as a Janácek authority, propagator, publisher and above all, conductor. He is celebrating his 80th birthday in November with a year full of impressive musical activity.

- He has displayed his deep, lifelong knowledge of Janácek's music countless times both in the great concert halls and opera houses of the world, as well as on numerous recordings.

- Mackerras has received numerous awards, notably in recent years, the 2001 Gramophone Award and two nominations for the 2002 Grammy awards for his recording of Janácek's first opera Sárka.

- His Janácek recordings are also among the highlights of the Supraphon catalogue.

- Supraphon's January 2004 double album of Janácek's complete orchestral works performed by Mackerras and the Czech Philharmonic is now joined by a DVD of the monumental Glagolitic Mass. The DVD also features the overture Jealousy and the orchestral rhapsody Taras Bulba.
