Description: Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There by Lewis Carroll Adapted for radio by John Wells with music composed and conducted by Carl Davis First broadcast by BBC Radio 4 on Christmas Day 1985. "Less excited by novelty of content than by skill of performance, within which field his sensibility was acute, he was most at home with the popular classics of the theatre and dramatisations of the classics of literature. Notable amongst these were his radio productions of Alice in Wonderland (1977), and Alice Through the Looking Glass (1985) in association with the composer Carl Davis. Here his passion for music (he was both an opera and a ballet buff as well as a theatre buff), his child-like sense of fun, his knowledge of technology and his enthusiasm for performance all allied to create prize-winning works of sheer delight." Recorded on cassette from the 1985 broadcast: one Maxell UD60 and one Sony HF90. Torrented as four files corresponding to sides 1 & 2 of the tapes - inevitably there is a short gap at each tape flip.
