Jeffrey Fisher on CDs

Over the past 500 years, there is a tradition that many classical music compositions are the soundtrack to a story, a person or a place -- Peter and the wolf, the Blue Danube, the rodeo, the devil, etc. Following this path is Jeffrey Fisher, who composed and performed the new CD FAIRY TALES, is based on the old tales for children written by Hans Christian Andersen.

Of course, as with so much contemporary music, Fisher created the music on a synthesizer, but the instrumental sounds re-create a full traditional symphony orchestra. Fisher strives to capture the moods and personalities of those classic childhood fantasies of Thumbellina (the tiny adventuresome girl), Red Shoes (the selfish dancer) and The Mermaid (who falls in love with a human prince). Fisher's music originally scored a ballet based on these stories.
