| Tales from Hoffnung
Based on the weird and wonderful works of Gerald Hoffnung and his silly symphonies.
Britain's first and possible only animation studio, Halas and Batchelor in conjunction with the BBC, produced these seven short films of music and mayhem.
Using Hoffnung's original drawings, with the music of Francis Chagrin these cartoons are a perfect way to introduce children of all ages to classical music. Timeless and funny with an innocence long gone, The Tales from Hoffnung, will bring back the child in you.
Ruddigore
The first animated work based on Gilbert and Sullivan. This lively film was the first ever operetta to be made into a cartoon. It follows the exploits of a line of Baronets who are cursed to commit a crime a day or die. It is a tale of love and revenge with ghosts and magic.
The voices come from the world famous D'Oyle Carte Opera Company with music from the London Philharmonic Orchestra.
Tales from Hoffnung and Ruddigore have been digitally restored to bring out the warmth, humour and fun in both productions and are released for the very first time to the home entertainment market. |
