**Product Description:**Humperdinck's opera "Hansel and Gretel" is based on the Brothers Grimm fairy tale. In Europe, it is a holiday staple alongside "The Nutcracker," beloved by children and adults alike. The music is full of charm, featuring folk songs and beautiful choral pieces woven into a heavy Late Romantic orchestration reminiscent of Wagner.
The production features a superb cast of singers, including Annette Dasch (Gretel) with her lovely vocals, accompanied by the In Bocca al Lupo Orchestra and Children's Chorus under the direction of Andreas Schüller. This puppet performance offers a witty production unique to the medium, such as the gingerbread house being a replica of the Bayreuth Festival Theatre and the witch transforming into the likeness of Richard Wagner.
