SYNOPSIS Hansel and Gretel are playing in their house in the woods alone, waiting for their mother and father to come home. They should be making brooms, but are playing games instead. Hansel moans about being so hungry, and Gretel tries to distract him by teaching him a fun dance. She also shows him a surprise hidden away for later – a jug of milk a neighbour gave their mother that she is going to turn into custard. Their mother comes home and tells them off for being naughty and playing rather than making broomsticks. In her anger she accidently knocks over the jug of milk, and then sends the children out in to the woods with a basket to gather strawberries. The poor mother gets quite upset, as she doesn’t have any food for her family. Father comes home, very happy that he’s sold lots of broomsticks and managed to buy the family a basket full of good food. He soon cheers up the Mother. However, when she tells him that she sent the children out in to the woods after they were naughty, he becomes worried and tells Mother about the ‘Evil One’ who lives in the gloomy wood, full of magic spells.

Out in the woods, Hansel and Gretel are gathering lots of strawberries in their baskets. They come across a cuckoo bird and hear the leaves in the trees whispering to them and they become quite scared. Out of nowhere comes a small man carrying a sack – he is the Sandman, he reassures the children that he is good and sprinkles magic sand in their eyes to help them sleep. Hansel begins to get sleepy, and Gretel encourages him to sing their evening prayer before falling asleep. As they sleep, fourteen angels appear in their dreams and dance around them, keeping them safe. Morning comes, and the Dew Fairy shakes dewdrops over the sleeping children to wake them up. They slowly wake, and the Dew Fairy disappears as the morning mist clears. As the mist clears, they see a house not far away with a fence made out of Gingerbread figures. Hansel soon realises that the house is edible, and slowly approaches. Hansel breaks off a piece of the house and eats it. The Witch soon startles him, and he drops the piece of edible house in a fright. The Witch entices the children closer to her, encouraging them to approach. They soon decide to run off, but as they do so the Witch casts a magic spell over them with her magic wand. Hansel and Gretel are too clever to be tricked by the magic, and soon try to tease the Witch. The Witch tries to push Hansel in to the oven, but he says that he can’t manage it, and the Witch bends over double showing him how to get inside the oven. Together the children give her a big push, and she falls right in to the oven, with the door closing behind her. Hansel and Gretel celebrate the Witch’s demise. They soon realise that they are surrounded by children. Gretel goes around to all of the children and slowly they open their eyes, smiling. The children thank Hansel and Gretel for saving them from the Witch, and hand in hand they sing. The Father and Mother join them, happy that their children are safe and well. Everyone dances together joyously.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS WHAT IS OPERA? Opera is a complex art form that has been around since about 1600. In 2014 there are many styles of opera performance, but basically, they all have one thing in common – an opera is a play that is sung.

WHAT IS A TYPICAL OPERA STORY? Initially, most opera stories were taken from mythology. Since then composers have taken stories from a variety of sources including literature, history, Shakespearean plays, children’s stories, real events and even Hollywood movies!

HOW MANY PEOPLE DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE AN OPERA? Many. The creation of an opera involves a composer, who writes the music and a librettist, who writes the words, usually adapted from an existing story. That’s the easy part. The hard part is bringing an opera to life on the stage. This can involve an army of hundreds of workers that include the artists – singers, dancers, conductors, orchestral musicians, language coaches, music staff and directors; the designers – lighting, scenery and costumes; the craftspersons – set builders, costumiers and wig makers; the technical staff – stage managers, lighting technicians, fly operators, stage mechanists, electricians, surtitle operators, dressers; and of course the managers who coordinate all of the above.

WHAT COMES FIRST – THE WORDS OR THE MUSIC? The creation of an opera is usually a collaboration - which means the composer and librettist work closely together.

WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENT TYPES OF OPERATIC VOICES? There are five major voice types – Soprano, Mezzo-Soprano (both females), Tenor, Baritone and Bass (all males) with further categories defining each particular voice.

WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BE AN OPERA SINGER? Years of discipline and training. A singer needs to possess a good instrument (the voice) to start with and then spend years developing it. A singer needs to be able to sing acoustically in large auditoriums and be heard above an orchestra, which can sometimes have as many as 80 players.

WHAT IS AN ARIA? This is a song for solo voice. The aria allows the singer to pause and reflect on action that has passed and express their inner thoughts and feelings.

Victorian Opera 2014 – Hansel and Gretel General Resource

7


WHAT IS A RECITATIVE? Recitative was used in the 18th and early 19th century much like dialogue is used in music theatre of today. There are two kinds of recitative: secco – accompanied on a harpsichord or accompagnato – accompanied by the orchestra.

WHAT IS AN ENSEMBLE? Music for two or more singers singing together, for example in a duet or trio (as shown in the picture below). A large ensemble would be called the chorus.

WHERE WILL WE BE SEEING THE OPERA? At the Arts Centre Melbourne, Fairfax Studio. This is a small theatre seating around 360 people, so you will be close to the action.

APPLAUSE Play it by ear and follow along with the rest of the audience. However, audiences generally applaud at the end of the overture and often at the completion of arias – and of course wildly at the end!

WHAT MAKES UP THE ORCHESTRA? 

Conductor- directs the orchestra with movements of their baton

Flute

3 Violins

Oboe

1 Viola

2 Clarinets

1 Cello

Bassoon

1 Double Bass

2 French Horns

 Piano This is a special arrangement for Victorian Opera by Julian Langdon.
