Two shining stars of the most prestigious opera houses in the world - American soprano Corinne Winters and tenor Pavel Černoch in arias, duets and scenes from operas by Slavic composers


American soprano Corinne Winters has performed more than thirty roles in major opera houses around the world. The Slavic or Czech repertoire occupies a fundamental place in her operatic career. This season she will make her debut at the Metropolitan Opera in New York, the Bavarian State Opera in Munich, return to the Royal Opera House Covent Garden and the Teatro dell'Opera in Rome.


Pavel Cernoch is considered one of the leading tenors of our time. He regularly performs at major opera houses such as the Vienna State Opera, Paris National Opera, Royal Opera Covent Garden, Berlin and Bavarian State Opera. He is renowned for his versatility, and his interpretation of the Czech and Slavic repertoire is particularly appreciated.

In Leoš Janáček’s opera, Katya Kabanová, the eponymous heroine is ensnared at the heart of an ominous mesh of relations. Her domineering mother-in-law, Kabanicha, oppresses and controls her son Tichon, whose marriage to Katya suffers massively from heteronomy. Because Katya finds no fulfilment in this family, she flees and fulfils her unsatisfied erotic desires in an affair with Boris. As composer and librettist, Janáček bundles the plot of the literary template, Alexander N. Ostrovsky’s drama, The Storm. The libretto largely dispenses with the portrayal of the external social circumstances, from whence Katya’s essence and choices are decisively determined. Instead, Janáček traces the development of the title character in a psychological-sensitive musical language. Katya’s feelings of guilt increase continuously until they discharge into a public confession as an emotional storm. The turbulent and in places fanciful music opens the space for passages of lyrical grace and allows us to experience the essence of the characters. In Katya, director Krzysztof Warlikowski sees an outsider, who is denied a life in harmony with her desires, and at the end prefers death over lies. The destructive power of religion behind it all is not only found in a small Russian town on the banks of the Volga in the 1860s, where the libretto places the plot, but rather can also be seen everywhere all over the world.

„Sergey, a role to which Pavel Černoch brings both feline grace and loutish opportunism.“

- Financial Times -

„Pavel Černoch as Max sang with a clear and brilliant voice, fearlessly and impressively scaling the heights of his arias.“

- Bachtrack -

„Pavel Černoch […] excels in this role where Shostakovich takes pleasure in diverting the image of the heroic tenor.“

- Concert Classic -

„Pavel Černoch’s dashingly attractive, if weak-willed Boris. (…) Černoch is very much her equal – warm in tone, ardent yet vacillating, and simmering with resentment at his treatment brutal Dikoj.“

- The Guardian -

„Pavel Černoch is a moving Laca with flaming tenor heights, whose change from aggressive to a devoted lover is impressive.“

- Die Deutsche Buehne -
