German advertising column (Litfaßsäule) on a gloomy winter morning in Darmstadt. Strong winds have torn down all the posters on the right side of the column. Posters in the middle of the column are partially covered by the ripped remains of the torn-down posters blowing over them. They advertise the opera Hänsel und Gretel at the Staatstheater Darmstadt, the musical Massachusetts – Das Bee Gees Musical at the Darmstadium, and the play Die Abenteuer des Tom Sawyer, also at the Staatstheater Darmstadt.

😀 What a coincidence to see this great illustration! I’m currently getting back into the witch for our Hänsel und Gretel production!

Ein golden Horn zur Hüften,

so trat er aus den Lüften

mit züchtigem Gebaren
gab Tröstung er mir ein; –
des Ritters will ich wahren,
er soll mein Streiter sein!

I wonder if I’d get lonesome fer the valley though
Fer the sound of crickets
and the smell of pine straw
Fer soft little rabbits
and bloomin’ things
An’ the mountains turnin’ gold in the fall
But I could always come back
If I got homesick fer the valley
So I’ll leave it someday
and see fer […]

Dich, teure Halle, grüss’ ich wieder,
froh grüss’ ich dich, geliebter Raum! In dir erwachen seine Lieder,
und wecken mich aus düstrem Traum.
Da er aus dir geschieden,
wie öd’ erschienst du mir!
Aus mir entfloh der Frieden,
die Freude zog aus dir.

Sheet music: piano reduction of the beginning of act 3, scene 3 of Engelbert Humperdinck’s opera Hänsel und Gretel. The first line, for “He.” (Hexe, the Witch) has the staging instruction “Eine Stimme aus dem Häuschen” (a voice from the little house). It is highlighted in orange and reads: „Knusper, knusper Knäuschen, wer knuspert mir am Häuschen?“ (Crunchy, crispy creaks, who knips me at the cottage?).
„Knusper, knusper Knäuschen,
wer knuspert mir am Häuschen?“ — Knusperhexe

I wonder what it’s like out there
Out there way beyond them mountains
Where the folks talk nice an’ the folks dress nice
Like ya see in the mail order catalogs
I aim to leave this valley some day
An’ find out for myself:
To see all them tall buildin’s and all the street lights
An’ to be one […]
Come scoglio immoto resta
contro i venti e la tempesta,
così ognor quesadilla è feta
nella fede e nell'amor.
