Elizabeth Jane Baldry
A professional harpist since 1994 appearing regularly on television and radio.
Her own compositions have been used by ITV, BBC and Irish, Japanese and
Canadian film, radio and television. Elizabeth Jane's rediscovery of Victorian
fairy harp music has led to many quaint adventures including a half-hour Radio
4 documentary, a show on the West End stage (Criterion Theatre) with actor Simon
Callow for which she also wrote the songs, at the Royal Academy of Art's exhibition
of Victorian fairy paintings, at Prince Charles' unveiling of the newly restored fairy
oak tree in Kensington Gardens, and involvement with the major French exhibition
Dragons, Elfes et fées, and an appearance in award-winning Canadian television
documentary, The Fairy Faith.

Fiona Moore has been telling stories for 15 years in art centres, festivals, schools,
libraries and deep dark forests. She runs community choirs in the natural voice
tradition following the code that if you can speak, you can sing.
Her strength lies in her ability to draw audiences of all ages into the story,
brought to life with consummate skill of breathtaking suspense, awe and curiosity.

and of magic
A Winter Charm: Walk with the Polar Bear, banish the winter cold
