About

A repackaging of a pre-2001 CfP title into the current series design - Britten and Prokofiev’s children’s favourites, narrated by Richard Baker, with the addition of a less familiar but no less enchanting companion piece, Rawsthorne’s Practical Cats. T. S. Eliot’s verses (from Old Possum) are magically spoken by the unsurpassable Robert Donat.
