Item Description
TWO Tickets to Pittsburgh Opera's production of Hansel and Gretel.
Tuesday, November 6, 2018.
Performance held at the Benedum Center.
For its 2018-’19 season – the company’s 80th – Pittsburgh Opera will offer a variety of productions sure to meet with just about any music lover’s taste.
German works aren’t frequently staged by the company, and Engelbert Humperdinck’s delightful musical setting of Hansel & Gretel will come as a breath of fresh, Bavarian air. Everyone knows the fairy tale; some who might not have heard it before, and may think the opera is for the kiddies only, will be surprised by the amount of beautiful music included in the score – lovely vocal pieces and sumptuous orchestration. The composer’s masterpiece will be performed (in English) at the Benedum, again with Antony Walker wielding the baton. Mezzo-soprano Corrie Stallings and soprano Ashley Fabian will sing the title roles. Frequently the part of the witch goes to a “character tenor” in hag drag, but happily, that won’t be the case in this production – Marianne Cornetti, well known to local musical audiences, is cast for the role.
