ELEANOR ALBERGA (b.1949)

 

Roald Dahl’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs

 

Danny DeVito, Joanna Lumley, Griff Rhys Jones, Taliesin Orchestra, Peter Ash

 

A wonderful and magical retelling of Roald Dahl’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs recorded in 1998 with new original music by Eleanor Alberga and until now never commercially released. The ideal Christmas present!

 

Read by the legendary Danny DeVito, along with one of Britain’s most adored actresses Joanna Lumley, and the irrepressible Griff Rhys-Jones, this recording was made to benefit Roald Dahl’s Marvellous Children’s Charity which since 1991 has raised more than £5.5 million to help children living with serious blood or brain illnesses

 

Supported by a marketing campaign in conjunction with the Roald Dahl Foundation

 

“Snow White is a wonderful piece. The music is a bit like Roald Dahl's words - thrilling, exciting, funny and sometimes a little bit frightening. I am hugely proud to have been involved in this recording, which helps raise money for a marvellously worthwhile cause” Joanna Lumley
