Summary:
While the story of Jenůfa--about a young woman plagued by hardship yet resilient in the face of adversity and social scorn--may seem small compared to some of the more grandiose works in the operatic cannon, its characters and their struggles for happiness are no less compelling, and Janáček's music never fails to tug at the heartstrings. In this Saturday Matinee Radio Broadcast from 2003, soprano Karita Mattila stars in the title role, the first of four of the composer's characters that she would inhabit on the Met stage. Alongside her, soprano Deborah Polaski is Jenůfa's imperious stepmother, the Kostelnička, and tenors Kim Begley and Christopher Ventris are the half-brothers hoping to win Jenůfa's affection. Maestro Vladimir Jurowski is on the podium to lead one of the most celebrated scores of the early-20th century.

Úvod (Prelude)
Už se večer chýlí
Vy, stařenko
Jenůfka, ej
Co to robíš, mládku?
Co ty, Jenůfo
Duša moja, Števo, Števuško!
Daleko široko do těch Nových Zámků
A tak bychom šli celým životem
Števo, Števo, já vím
Neškleb se!
Jak rázem všecko to Števkovo vypínání schlíplo
Nechám ještě dveře otevřeny
Pořád se s tím děckem mažeš
Ba, ta tvoje okenička už přes dvacet neděl zabedněna
Tetko Kostelničko
Tetuško, kameň by se ustrnul
Ale viděl jsem vcházet šohaje
Co chvíla
Mamičko, mám těžkou hlavu
Kdo to je?
Toť zrovna jde!
Není ti teskno, Jenůfko?
Dej Bůh štěstí!
Vidíš, Laco
A hen! Už jsou tu!
To bylo ňákého
Chuďátko!
Ještě jsem tu já!
Vstaňte, pěstounko moja!
Odešli.
