Duo Hofmann, consisting of Truus and Jeanne Hofmann, have released their latest album, "Roodkapje En De Wolf," and it is a delightful listen for all ages. The album is a collection of traditional Dutch children's songs, including the well-known story of Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf.
The sisters' harmonies blend beautifully together, and their playful interpretations of the songs add a fun twist to the classic tunes. The instrumentation is simple but effective, with guitar, accordion, and percussion providing a lively accompaniment.
One of the standout tracks is "De Wolf," which tells the story of the wolf's encounter with Little Red Riding Hood in a catchy and humorous way. The album also includes other traditional songs like "In Den Haag Daar Woont Een Graaf" and "Zeg Ken Jij De Mosselman?"
