The Cunning Little Vixen, directed by Nicholas Hytner, draws you into its whimsical world with a vibrant palette and a score that dances through the air. Sung in the original Czech, the music, under Sir Charles Mackerras, feels both fresh and deeply rooted in JanĆ”Äekās style. The pacing has this delightful ebb and flow, almost like the forest itself breathing. The sets and costumes, designed by Bob Crowley, radiate a childlike wonder that complements the themes of nature and transformation. Itās not just an opera; itās a journey through innocence and the cycle of life. The performances have a naturalness that's hard to pin down but feels so right for the material. Thereās an understated magic here that some might overlook but certainly shouldnāt.
