Songs from Alice: Alice in Wonderland and Alice Through the Looking Glass

Lewis Carroll’s inspired nonsense rhymes from Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass have been set to music before, but never so happily as in Songs from Alice.

The music – by Don Harper, Australian composer and jazz violinist – has a wit and spirit which is the ideal match for Lewis Carroll’s words.

The illustrations, by Charles Folkard, provided the immediate stimulus for this book.

Originally published in 1921 they were rediscovered when the publisher cleared the cellars where they had lain undisturbed for fifty years. They provide the perfect complement to this fusion of talents.
