Smetana - The Bartered Bride - Benacková, Dvorský - 1981

Smetana - The Bartered Bride - Benacková, Dvorský - 1981 - TV-Film

Performer: Richard Novák (Kecal); Peter Dvorský (Jeník); Gabriela Beňačková (Mařenka); Miroslav Kopp (Vašek); Jindřich Jindrák (Krušina); Marie Veselá (Ludmila); Jaroslav Horáček (Mícha); Marie Mrázová (Háta); Alfréd Hampel (Ringmaster); Jana Jonášová (Esmeralda)
Conductor: Zdeněk Košler
Orchestra/Ensemble: Czech Philharmonic Orchestra



This is a charming, beautifully sung production
of an unfairly overlooked Czech masterpiece. Peter Dvorsky is a lovable and endearing Jenik. The magnetism between the handsome Dvorsky and his sweetheart Marenka, sung by Gabriela Benackova, is believable and heartfelt. Even the children are unusually adorable. This is a highly recommended performance, warm and uplifting, culturally authentic and very well-directed. --Amazon customer
