Czech composer Hans Krása wrote Brundibár, a half hour children's opera, for performance at a Prague orphanage, but he was deported to Terezín before its premiere. A copy of the vocal score found its way to Terezín, and Krása reorchestrated it in 1943. The opera received over 50 performances by children in the camp before the composer was transported to Auschwitz and killed. Koch's recording of Brundibár is notable for its use of Tony Kushner's engaging translation of Adolf Hoffmeister's libretto. The opera is performed here with adults in all the principal roles, with the Seattle Northwest Boychoir, and Gerard Schwarz conducting the Music of Remembrance orchestra. The singers approach their roles with disarming simplicity, with none of the mugging and garish sentimentality that can mar performances whose target audience is children. The result is an appealing and direct performance that's both musically and dramatically satisfying. The CD is filled out with Krása's lighthearted Overture for Small Orchestra, written while he was a prisoner at Terezín, and Lori Laitman's 1996 song cycle I Never Saw Another Butterfly. Laitman's touching and restrained setting of six poems written by children imprisoned at Terezín is a poignant tribute to the dignity of the children in the camp. Soprano Maureen McKay and clarinetist Laura DeLuca perform the songs with subtlety and intensity.
