KDFC to Broadcast San Francisco Opera's Jenufa, April 1, 2018

From the SF Opera press release, here's what you need to know:

CLASSICAL KDFC TO BROADCAST SAN FRANCISCO OPERA
PRESENTATION OF LEOŠ JANÁČEK’S JENŮFA
SUNDAY, APRIL 1, 2018, 8 PM PST

Jiří Bělohlávek Conducts 2016 Performance Starring Karita Mattila,
Malin Byström, William Burden and Scott Quinn


In person, this was one of the greatest performances I've ever seen. The headline doesn't mention Jill Grove, but she was a fantastic and telling Grandmother Burya. Mattila was an absolutely stunning Kostelnicka, Byström a reserved Jenufa with an iron spine.
