@luciferlocke Might we not overdo the 'authentic Czech at any price' approach? Janacek seemed to approve his friend Max Brod's German version of the opera,after all. Would British youngsters watching a long, subtitled Czech opera both understand and remain enthralled, and would Janacek really have approved of his 'melodic curves of speech' theories reducing access to his works by non-Czechs (assuming a sympathetic translation, obviously)?

It may be in english, but even I as an english speaker cannot understand it, XD I'd prefer it in czech even though I don't know that language.

@jennythemusicmaker Same here.

Not a book, Rudolf Tesnohlidek's original Liska Bystrouska was published as a newspaper comic strip.
Janacek's opera was the first, and possibly only opera based on a comic strip.

He says "You had better do as you're told! Don't be disobedient! Anything for a quiet life..."
I remember original footage of when Matt Baker recorded his voice for the dog. :)

The chickens make me happy XD

...Whow that was cool o_o! I liked it alot lol
-
Unfortunately few people know that the opera is based off of a book. Janacek got famous off the genius of Tesnolidek.

The original was in Czech, and Janacek's melodic style is notoriously tied to the patterns of the Czech language - an effect he deliberately cultivated early in his career. One one hand I'm sympathetic to BBC's intention (I presume) to make this accessible to a wide audience (and children in particular), but then on the other hand I feel it really loses much of its vitality this way.
