Filharmonia Narodowa, Chamber Music Hall (Warszawa)
Cezary Nowak (Actor), Gabriela Ziniewicz (Flute), Jacek Małachowski (Accordion), Michał Bator (Percussion instruments), Katarzyna Podlasińska (Presenter)
Have you ever seen blue snowballs or chirping dogs? Or perhaps flying cows? The poet saw these wonders and marvels when he closed his eyes. But when he opened them, they all disappeared and... all around him it was just like before. Our concert is an invitation to close our eyes together, and then we’ll soar together into the fairytale world of imagination. There music weaves intriguing tales and is always keen to imitate the characters and sounds of its surroundings. Would you like to hear what it’ll present to us this time?

Hansel and Gretel

Fri, Dec 13, 2024, 19:30
About the work Hansel and Gretel, children of a poor broom maker and his wife, are sent into the woods one day by their mother to pick berries – as punishment for larking around instead of doing their chores. When their father arrives home bearing a bag full of treats after a successful working day, he berates his wife, because the woods are home to an evil witch. The parents set off to look for the kids, who have meanwhile filled their baskets but then eaten all the berries themselves out of sheer hunger. They also realise darkness has fallen and they’re lost, so they lie down for the night and say their prayers, falling asleep and having a strange and wonderful dream. In the morning they wake to see a cottage made of gingerbread and other sweetmeats. Nibbling at the house, they are surprised by the witch, who takes them captive, planning to bake the children in her oven. Instead, they play a trick on her and push her into her own oven. The spell is broken and all the children who had been transformed into gingerbread by the witch regain their human form. The pair’s parents appear and the reunited family returns home. For over a century Engelbert Humperdinck’s HANSEL AND GRETEL has enjoyed a reputation as one of the most popular operas for all the family. Humperdinck could not resist rendering the story – a dramatic tale for children and adults alike – as a piece of musical theatre, a two-hour symphonic masterpiece peppered with hummable tunes. Translated into over twenty languages, the work remains the first contact for many children with the world of opera. The score does not conceal its debt to Wagner but does not rely on his aura in attracting the uninitiated either. Evergreen numbers of the likes of “Ein Männlein steht im Walde”, “Abends wenn ich schlafen geh’, vierzehn Englein um mich stehn” or “Der kleine Sandmann bin ich” guide audiences through the exposition and remain lodged in the memory long after the auditorium has emptied.
