Universal Edition

The works for solo piano by Leos Janáček (1854-1928) are not great in number, however, they play a significant role in his oeuvre, forming one of the pillars of piano literature of the 20th century. After the piano cycle "In the Mists" which might be described as the composers intimate confession of his spiritual state and the Sonata 1.X.1905, Bärenreiter publishes what is possibly Janáček's most popular piano work, the cycle of commemorative miniatures "On an Overgrown Path".

Intimate Letters: Leos Janacek to Kamila Stosslova

Biographies & Memoirs

Faber&Faber

During the last decade of his life Leo Janá?ek sent hundreds of passionate letters to Kamila Stösslová, a married woman half his age. Selections from their correspondence are translated in this volume, with linking commentary, photographs and a decoding of the lovers erotic references. Their words reveal how much this relationship inspired the composers final, greatest works - including the String Quartet Intimate Letters - and shed valuable light on his personality.

Responding to the ever-increasing popularity and international performances of operas by the Czech composer Leo? Janácek, this volume, the first in the Janácek Opera Libretti Series, is the full translation of The Cunning Little Vixen in English alongside the original Czech. This work meets the needs of English-speaking singers, conductors, coaches, and stage directors and conveniently provides idiomatic and word-for-word translations, including translations of stage and musical directions. In addition, the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA) is used to indicate Czech pronunciation, following the clearly-presented method given in the author's book Singing in Czech: A Guide to Czech Lyric Diction and Vocal Repertoire, with a foreword by Sir Charles Mackerras. Cheek also provides practical notes about Janácek's style, both in general terms and specific issues relating to this opera along with a plot summary with translations and vocal ranges of characters and the pronunciation of their names. This entire volume is organized in a clear, readable format, resulting in a book that will help to make productions of The Cunning Little Vixen in the original Czech much easier a task than ever before.
