The evening prayer 'Abends will ich schlafen gehen' is certainly one of the most beautiful and moving pieces in Humperdinck's fairy-tale opera 'Hansel and Gretel'. The British organist Edwin H. Lemare (1865-1934) who was famous for his improvisations and transcriptions wrote an arrangement of this work under the title of 'Angel Scene'. Following closely the original score and skilfully selecting stops, he created a version that still today does not fail to have its desired effect on the audience.
