Geocache Description:

Watch out for muggles, mostly workers…
This cache had to be relocated several times: Once due to muggles, and again due to a critter or something not liking it in the tree!!! LOL

Engelbert Humperdinck was a German composer, best known for his opera Hänsel und Gretel. After receiving piano lessons, Humperdinck produced his first composition at the age of seven. His reputation rests chiefly on his opera Hänsel and Gretel, which he began work on in Frankfurt in 1890. He first composed four songs to accompany a puppet show his nieces were giving at home. The opera premiered in Weimar on 23 December 1893, under the baton of Richard Strauss, who called it "a masterpiece of the highest quality... all of it original, new, and so authentically German." With its highly original synthesis of Wagnerian techniques and traditional German folk songs, Hänsel und Gretel was an instant and overwhelming success.
