'Haunting, gentle spirits from far-flung worlds meet in the pulsing sphere of dreams and lullabies that is Angel Heart, a music storybook. With an original tale by best-selling children's fantasy writer Cornelia Funke, Angel Heart weaves an evocative original score by Luna Pearl Woolf with beloved songs by Irving Berlin, Lennon-McCartney, Jake Heggie, Engelbert Humperdinck, Gordon Getty, and others. An affecting narration by Academy Award-winning actor Jeremy Irons layers upon intoxicating performances by singers Frederica von Stade, Daniel Taylor, Lisa Delan, and Zheng Cao - all above a rich bed of cellos, Matt Haimovitz and his ensemble Uccello. Exquisite images by the award-winning creative studio Mirada unfold the tale, and the boxed CD-and-story package includes a colouring poster, stickers and cards for sharing the magic. Originally released in 2013, and accompanied by premiere performances in Los Angeles and at Carnegie Hall in New York, this is the first international release of Angel Heart'. (Total time: 67'02'. PLEASE NOTE: BOXED PACKAGING WITH EXTENSIVE ILLUSTRATIONS. SACD: Hybrid Super-Audio disc)
