The first publication of a volume of Engelbert Humperdinck's fairy-tale opera 'Hänsel and Gretel' is a valuable addition to the successful series 'Operas of the World' for this work is the second most frequently played opera in the German-speaking area after Mozart's 'Magic Flute'.As, for many children, 'Hänsel and Gretel' is their first contact with the world of the opera, it seems natural to offer a complete libretto to the wide circle of interested persons. The book is based on the critical new edition by Hans-Josef Irmen which covers the latest research.
