This isn't really a Christmas song. But the
opera is often presented at Christmastime. (Although some recent productions are not of the
happy, fluffy, Christmas fairy tale variety. I probably would
not take kids, for example, to the Richard Jones production!!)
Anyway, this duet is sometimes featured on
Christmas albums. It's sung beautifully by the ever-wonderful goddess of song
Malin Hartelius as Gretel, and Zurich stalwart mezzo Liliana Nikiteanu, who is
super in a dress or in pants, as Hansel.
Happy Christmas Eve Eve.
