"This was great work from the conductor, Pavel Šnajdr, who rehearsed the opera and led the orchestra during the premiere. Šnajdr's systematic work with the independent Brno Contemporary Orchestra, made up partly of members from the Opera orchestra, has paid off for the National Theatre," wrote the critic Boris Klepal for the iHNed.cz website.

After the summer lull, our latest opera production returns to the stage of the Mahen Theatre - Rossini's Le comte Ory, this time featuring Petr Nekoranec in the title role. The character of the conceited count is in fact the only opera role which the 26-year-old tenor has performed in the Czech Republic. Since last year he has been one of fourteen participants at the celebrated Lindemann programme under the artistic guidance of the conductor James Levine at the Metropolitan Opera in New York. Partnering him on stage will be one of the most famous Czech sopranos, Kateřina Kněžíková.
