“There is so much emotion in this work, so much fire, that we would both be burnt to ashes if it touched us.” In the passionate story in verse about the village boy who falls in love with the gypsy girl and leaves everything behind to follow her, Leoš Janáček recognised his own feelings for his muse Kamila Stösslová.
