Proso - opereta DJC

Quite a useless piece of work, the best moment of which is “Ty české panenky" in a riveting performance by my favorite researcher Miloň Čepelka. I would have expected that the Cimrmanologists would have added at least a few new discoveries for such a festive occasion, that we would get something extra, for example, and that before each aria we would learn who sang it in Cimrman's Prose, how many times, when, why and for how much. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. Instead, I saw a strange recyclate of Hospoda na mýtince, in which the music was often downright distracting. And I was also unpleasantly struck by Jan Svěrák's direction, which completely ignored the comings and goings from the stage, reveled in shots from the other end of Smetana Hall, and I always had no choice but to wait for the cut to find out who had just arrived in front of the audience. I would also say that it would be equally appropriate to give the title of each piece and the name of the composer who stole it from the master at the beginning of the piece. I give it two and a half stars. (2013.11.23)
