Leoš Janáček , From the House of the Dead
Yes, I sometimes like listening to opera too...
Not the most obvious operas, perhaps. Corfiots tend to like Verdi and Italian opera.
I particularly like Czech opera, as a result of my years in Prague (and travelling throughout Bohemia, Moravia and Slovakia).
Leoš Janáček (July 3, 1854 – August 12, 1928):
"From the House of the Dead", the Overture.
Based on a story by Dostoevsky. Powerful!
