Jenůfa
''Jenůfa'' (''Její pastorkyňa'', "Her Stepdaughter" in Czech) is an opera in three acts by Leoš Janáček to a Czech libretto by the composer, based on the play ''Její pastorkyňa'' by Gabriela Preissová. It was first performed at the Brno Theater, Brno, 21 January 1904. It was written between 1896 and 1902,〔The description of the Universal Edition German-translated vocal score, 1944 republication, gives 1894–1903 instead- see .〕 and counts among the first operas written in prose.〔Kundera 2004, p. 54〕
The first of Janáček's operas in which his distinctive voice can clearly be heard, it is a grim story of infanticide and redemption. Like the playwright's original work, it is known for its unsentimental realism. While today it is heard in the composer's original version, ''Jenůfas early popularity was due to a revised version by Karel Kovařovic, altering what was considered its eccentric style and orchestration. Thus altered, it was well-received, first in Prague, and particularly after its Vienna première also worldwide.〔Štědroň 2006, p. 12〕 More than 70 years passed before audiences again heard it in Janáček's original version.
Janáček wrote an overture to the opera, but decided not to use it. It was partly based on a song called ''Žárlivec'' (''The jealous man''). It is now performed as a concert piece under the title ''Žárlivost'' (''Jealousy''), JW 6/10.〔(''Jealousy'', Classical Archives )〕
The composer dedicated the work to the memory of his dead daughter Olga, as he also did with his choral composition called the Elegy on the Death of Daughter Olga.
