Prodaná nevěsta is better in translation
I am interpreting “gained in translation” literally, and the wonderful The Bartered Bride with Vickers, Stratas, Gedda, and Talvela singing it in English was a great experience.

Their English was excellent and conveyed the comedy in the opera. Also on Youtube is a video of the performance of about 40 minutes, which provides the viewer the joy of seeing Vickers in a bear costume.
