This volume presents the probably most beautiful and most popular children’s opera that has ever been written, in an easy arrangement for piano, with all excerpts being in the respective original key. Among the seven operas composed by Humperdinck, ‘Hänsel und Gretel’ is his first and best masterpiece. The magic mood of this fairy-tale and the brilliant music explain why this opera still fascinates both children and adults.
