Berliner Philharmonie

It is fairytale time at the Philharmonie! Horn player and presenter Klaus Wallendorf welcomes “children and former children” to Engelbert Humperdinck’s opera Hänsel und Gretel, which he carefully abridged and supplied rhyming texts to connect the musical elements. The Berliner Philharmoniker and an outstanding ensemble of singers perform under the baton of Mark Elder.
