Aria from Engelbert Humperdinck's Königskinder sung by Olga Kulchynska | Dutch National Opera

“Forgotten opera ‘Königskinder’ is a feast for the senses” – NRC

Even though Königskinder tells a tragic love story, the evening was everything but dark. The fantastic soprano Olga Kulchynska sang the leading role of the Goose Girl and as you can hear, she did so flawlessly.
