With the “breathtakingly grandiose” (Salzburger Nachrichten) Angela Denoke in the lead role, this emotionally powerful opera was given superior treatment at the hands of the Wiener Philharmoniker under Esa-Pekka Salonen. They and the entire cast joined forces to make this production one of the highlights of the 2011 Salzburg Festival. “Ms. Denoke is a compelling actress … Salonen ensures a brilliant reading of Janác?ek’s fascinating score.” – The New York Times\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Leoš Janá?ek\u003cbr\u003e  V?C MAKROPULOS\u003cbr\u003e  (The Makropulos Affair)\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003e  Emilia Marty – Angela Denoke\u003cbr\u003e  Albert Gregor – Raymond Very\u003cbr\u003e  Vitek – Peter Hoare\u003cbr\u003e  Krista – Jurgita Adamonyt?\u003cbr\u003e  Jaroslav Prus – Johan Reuter\u003cbr\u003e  Janek – Aleš Briscein\u003cbr\u003e  Dr. Kolenatý – Jochen Schmeckenbecher\u003cbr\u003e  A Scottish maid – Linda Ormiston\u003cbr\u003e  A conscientious objector – Peter Lobert\u003cbr\u003e  Hauk-Šendorf – Ryland Davies\u003cbr\u003e  Jin Ling – Sasha Rau\u003cbr\u003e  Mary Lang – Silvia Fenz\u003cbr\u003e  Anita Stadler – Anita Stadler\u003cbr\u003e  \u003cbr\u003e Vienna State Opera Chorus\u003cbr\u003e  (chorus master: Jörn H.
