Masterpiece. This is how it´s done, athough I prefer the singing in german.

Watched this production as a child in the late 80s. I owned the VHS. This scene still fills me with wonder everytime I watch it.

Very nice to see this positive feedback. My children grew up with this performance and loved it as well!

I had mentioned in a previous post the Glynbourne production which I have now seen. It is very interesting and quite creative making use of contemporary problems around junk food and obesity. An interesting link. Unfortunately I do not have the DVD yet.

I have not seen the new met production. I used to take my children to see it every year when they were younger. I am curious to see the one they did in Glynbourne. It is part of the opera series that we get here and watch in movie theatres.

There is a DVD of this quite readily available. You can also find it on VHS tape. Try searching under Hansel and Gretel Blegen von Stade

It is the sense of protective canopy the 14 angels provide the two children along with Humperdinks incredible music that appeals to me and I hope all children young and old.
