Newspaper of a missing

The Journal of a missing (or Notebook of a missing ) is a cycle of songs written by Leoš Janáček in 1917 for Ténor, Soprano, female chorus S and Piano.

The texts are Poème S anonymities in Wallachian dialect - north of the Moravie - published in 1916 in a newspaper of Brno, describing the adventures of a young fleeing farmer of its village with its beloved, a gipsy.

One can see there an allusion to the recent meeting of the type-setter, already ripe and married, with his 38 years egery his junior, Kamila Stösslová.

This work is characterized by a certain poverty of the means - chorus which can be reduced to three voice women - and can be brought closer by this skew to other parts which are contemporary for him like the History of the soldier of Igor Stravinski.

The first took place with the Palais Reduta with Brno on April 18th, 1921.

It comprises 22 numbers and its execution lasts approximately half an hour.
