Podrobný výpis o publikaci

Anna Barová (1932-2015) divided her attention between stage and later pedagogical activities. Together with her husband Jiří Bar, she first worked at the Leipzig Opera, where she sang (in German, as was the custom at the time) roles in Italian, German, Russian and Czech operas, and in 1964 received the Für ausgezeichnete Leistungen medal for her performances. After the occupation of Czechoslovakia in 1968, both spouses returned to Brno. In the local opera, Anna Barová created a number of remarkable roles, of which she engaged in Dueňa in Prokofiev's Engagements in the Monastery, Bizet's Carmen, Marfa in Mussorgsky's Chovanshina and Mother in Janáček's Fate. Anna Barová has been teaching at JAMU since the 1990s, where she has educated ten graduates who like to remember her inspiring work.
