This was great! All the emotions are so accessible, but so deep and true to the story also. Even my ten year old brother could tell what part of the story we were at by listening to a little bit.
Great music!
author: Anne Marie - FrodoandSam-aholic Very good version of the story, great classical music, sounds like an movie soundtrack. Best of the music I've heard out there inspired by this masterpiece of a story. Thank you, Mr. Peters! God bless.
