Jan KuceraAbout
The resounding success of Die Dreigroschenoper proved that the path he had taken was the right one; the new genre emerged at an appropriate time, and it seemed that the audience had been waiting for opera’s resurgence too. The results of his efforts were considerable simplification of the musical idiom, inspiration by pop and jazz, and the assignment of the vocal parts to actors without traditional professional voice training. It was a true revolution.
Dagmar Pecková has throughout her illustrious career appeared on the world’s most prominent stages as an artist acclaimed as a refined performer of music by Mozart, Mahler, Bizet ...
The singular poetics of Weill’s songs, a fabulous orchestra and splendid arrangements blending classical music and jazz – and, of course, Dagmar Pecková, who has never been “just” a diva, but a singer who makes her dreams come true and does everything with great enthusiasm.
Recorded at the Czech Radio–Studio Karlín, Prague, July 2016
