Eleanor Dennis, Aaron Azunda Akugbo
Sean Rafferty talks to Eleanor Dennis about her role in Humperdinck's Hansel and Gretel, and trumpeter Aaron Azunda Akugbo performs live in the studio.
She is the Gingerbread Witch in Opera Holland Park's new production of Humperdinck's 'Hansel and Gretel': soprano Eleanor Dennis joins Sean Rafferty and talks about her role in this iconic fairy tale opera.
Also joining Sean Rafferty is young star trumpet player Aaron Azunda Akugbo, who, before performing at the St Magnus Festival in June and at the 成人快手 Proms this Summer, joins the 'In Tune' studio for a live performance accompanied by harpist Milo Harper.
