'Fairy Tales' by violinists Matthew Trusler and Maya Koch.

Narrated by Timothy West

‘Fairy Tales’, an album devised by violinists Matthew Trusler and Maya Koch, was recently released on the Orchid label in aid of the Lenny Trusler Children’s Foundation. The recording features some of the greatest and most memorable of children’s literature: including works by Roald Dahl, Edward Lear, Lewis Carroll, Spike Milligan and AA Milne. New musical recordings also feature, such as the Cinderella Suite by Prokofiev, Children’s Corner by Debussy, Danse Macabre and The Swan by Saint-Saëns – music that will be loved by children and adults alike.

Not one, but FOUR illustrious actors - Kenneth Branagh, Tom Conti, Simon Pegg and Clive Owen - have donated their services to the disc, as well as two of the UK’s best loved musicians – Matthew Trusler (violin) and Martin Roscoe (piano).

Matthew Trusler and Martin Roscoe are touring the project throughout the 2015 season and beyond, with Timothy West as narrator for the Maddermarket Theatre performance.
