Recording of the Week,
Janáček's Katya Kabanova from Simon Rattle and the London Symphony Orchestra
Amanda Majeski is riveting as the doomed heroine grasping for happiness in the face of a loveless marriage (and a monstrous mother-in-law) in provincial Russia, with Rattle expertly balancing the score's elemental power and claustrophobic intensity.
