Enchanted Worlds (Naxos Classics)
By Lewis Carroll, L. Frank Baum, J. M. Barrie

Fiona Shaw gives a wonderfully fresh reading of Carroll s classic adventures of Alice, making his fantastical characters thoroughly believable. The great children s classic of Dorothy s journey to Oz, written in 1900 and immortalized in the Judy Garland film, retains its charm in this reading by Liza Ross, with some of the music that made the film unforgettable. Plus, the story of the little boy who refused to grow up has captured the imagination of generations of children (and the adults they grew into) since its publication in 1904; funny, charming, touching and incisively observant as to the ways of children and adults, Peter Pan is an unforgettable story. Vivid sound effects together with music by Delius, Parry and Bruckner complete this delightful production
