Engelbert Humperdinck transformed Grimm's beloved fairy tale "Hänsel und Gretel" into opera entertainment - this production is tumultuous and joyful. Director Katharina Thalbach cheerfully evokes a magic world of woodland sprites and candy dreams and creates an enchanting fantasy world filled with high spirits, fairytale fantasy and genial comedy. Recorded live at the Dresden Semperoper.
