A spooky satirical mashup with Handel and Hendrix by Clemenzia Von Trunksale
For today's video of the day, a Halloween comedy special, Clemenzia Von Trunksale visits Handel Hendrix House and ends up jamming with the ghosts of George Frederick Handel & Jimi Hendrix.
Character of opera singer turned stand-up comedian, Melinda Hughes, Clemenzia Von Trunksale soars the heights of Wagnerian and Handelian arias with unabashed panache, even if the cracks are starting to show.
Melinda Hughes has tread the boards as a fully-fledged opera singer with the leading houses across Europe, until injury disrupted her flourishing career in her prime. After a flurry singing Weimar cabaret songs, Melinda Hughes has developed her comic sketches and political satire, sharing the stage with Barry Humphries and Rowan Atkinson, singing her way to laughter. Finalist in the Funny Women Awards, she has tremolo-ed with everyone who is anyone in opera from Sir Bryn Terfel to Roderick Williams and Joseph Calleja.
