Bienvenido de nuevo a esta famosa grabación de los archivos de la etiqueta amarilla, con la gran Rita Streich y Gisela Litz. ¡Una ópera basada en un cuento de hadas, pero de ninguna manera infantil! El horror inherente del cuento se pinta con colores wagnerianos y la tensión dramática es escalofriante. ¡Pobre Humperdinck! Recordado hoy por una sola obra, eclipsado tanto por Wagner como por Richard Strauss (¡la última indignidad llegó con el hecho de que su nombre fue tomado por un crooner de los años 60!), fue altamente respetado por sus colegas y ayudó a Wagner en Bayreuth en 1881-2 trabajando en la estreno de Parsifal. De sus nueve obras para el escenario, Hansel y Gretel se ha mantenido como un favorito en los teatros de ópera de todo el mundo. Una hábil mezcla de Der Freischütz de Weber, Los maestros cantores de Wagner y Siegfried, teje un hechizo mágico en el oyente. Conjurando todos los miedos infantiles de lo que vive profundamente en el bosque y cosas que van a golpes en la noche (¡después de todo, esto se basa en un cuento de los hermanos Grimm!), la mágica partitura de Humperdinck está llena de maravillosas melodías. El hecho de que se haya elegido una mezzosoprano, como Humperdinck pretendía, en lugar de una soprano para el papel de Hansel, significa que hay más diferenciación de voz aquí que en el disco de Columbia (Karajan). Rita Streich está muy bien encasillada como Gretel. El admirable artista Res Fischer es una bruja mucho mejor que Else Scharhof de Columbia, realmente canta toda su parte, en lugar de mover los labios, y es más siniestro. Gramófono
