"Janáceks gennembrudsopera fra 1904 er et barsk drama ... i denne autentiske 1978 studieoptagelse fremhæver specialisten Jilek fyldestgørende kontrasten i Janáceks specifikke vekslen mellem udfarende instrumental råstyrke og lyrisk varme ... Benackova er helt indtagende ... også Krejcik præsterer et stærkt tolket portræt".

"Not as dramatic as Mackerras's classic Decca set, and it uses the German reorchestration ... but a superbly authentic Czech cast with Benačková's heartbreaking Jenufa".

"Schade, dass man Iris Vermillions Küsterin Buryja nur auf den Fotos im Booklet sehen kann und nicht in Aktion ... In der Einheit von darstellerischer und vokaler Intensität war sie das Kraftzentrum der legendären, hier auf CD konservierten Grazer Produktion ... Dirk Kaftan finder mit dem Grazer Philharmonischen Orchester die stimmige Balance ... [und] sorgt für Farbenreichtum, Spannung und Leidenschaft".

"Kaftan keeps a firm grasp on the rapidly developing drama and is at his most impressive in the preludes to each act ... James is an affecting Jenufa and Ales Briscein is convincingly passionate as Laca, though at times his tone is surprisingly raw; in the key role of Kostelnicka, Iris Vermillion is vocally impressive, but her diction is often far from clear".

"Vermillion dominates the opera, but she has in Gal James a beautiful Jenufa, appealing in her predicament ... capable of a full lyrical outburst at the end. Taylan Reinhard delivers an impassioned Steva; Ales Briscein is a Laca who grows in stature to establish his right to Jenufa's affections ... Kaftan clearly admires a score which he sometimes rather over-emphasises".
